<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Interesting question. Many of the cities,
towns and villages have their own royal coats of arms. Look at the
stamps on your passport, many of the images are unique, and representative of
the town. The Y-shaped crusifix in Puente la Reina is one
such image that is memorable, as the 'puente' itself. The designs of some
of the churches are noteworthy and unique and the very image defines the
location (as at Eunate - which I missed). Some other things that come to
mind are the chicken pen in the church of Sto Domingo de Calzada;
the strange braided columns in Estella, in the cloisters of the church
of San Pedro de la Rua.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>And of course, if you think of "figs" on the
camino, that can mean only one PERSON, Felica. </FONT></DIV>

unique . </FONT></DIV>
