<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>With all these numbers being so high, it is a
little discouraging to think of planning a journey next year. What time of
year are these numbers estimated for? I assume the most of them will be
there between May and August. I am planning to go at the end of August, so
I will there through Sept., are these estimates for that late in the year as
well?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi,<BR>At first I, too, thought that the 270,000 were "pilgrim
nights", but after<BR>making inquiries I've been told that the pilgrims are
sort-of tracked down the<BR>Camino as they traverse it, and that the 270,000
came from the names provided<BR>by the albergues, regardless of how many, or
how few, nights a particular<BR>pilgrim, identified by name, may have
spent at the albergues.<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
