<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Make a couple of copies of your passport and put one in
all pieces of your luggage, "just in case." Get a few Euros from your bank
before you leave so you'll have some as soon as you land in Europe.
No cameras allowed in the Cathedral at Burgos, buy postcards.

FAMILY="SANSSERIF">My sister-in-law and I are preparing to leave for Spain on
May 28th. We will start the pilgrimage at Burgos. This is what I've gleaned
from the ListServe:<BR><BR><B>I. Handy items to include:</B><BR>
-- Large safety pins and line to hang laundry.<BR> -- Eating
utensils.<BR><BR><B>2. Special tips:</B><BR> -- Identify your
all-purpose towel. (Mine now has a delightful stitched image of a
<BR> lion and a lamb.)<BR><BR><B>3. Reduce weight in
pack:</B><BR> -- I noted the recent discussion on sleeping bags
versus sleeping sacks. I purchased a sleeping sack and a Therm-A-Rest pad
(looks like eggshell cartons).<BR><BR><B>4. Don't judge
motivations:</B><BR> -- I read <I>Pilgrimage: Adventures of the
Spirit,</I> edited by Sean O'Reilly and James O'Reilly (published by
Travelers' Tales, San Francisco) a collection of essays on contemporary
pilgrims of all faiths. Highly recommended.<BR><BR>I was confused at first
about people's identities. I thought it strange that so many people had the
name of Ultreya!<BR><BR>Blessings and thanks
soulmates.<BR><BR>Ultreya,<BR>Marcia from Chicago
(chrnartsaaol.com)<BR><BR>P.S. Pieter and Trigo from Holland must be
delightful people.</FONT> </FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
