<DIV>Rosina,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you for forwarding these along. These are wonderful and I will
include a few in my scrapbook of the Camino.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am wondering if you or anyone out there may be able to help me track down
a poster. I saw it in Trinidad de Airre atthe Albergue. It was of
pilgrims' feet, some of them were simply just skeletons and some were actual
feet, the poster said Camino de Santiago, and there was a year, which now I
can't remember.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>When I arrived in Santiago I went on a search for this poster and came up
unsuccesful, I checked the library and Peregrino Museum. Any other
resources that I may be able to track this poster down?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks in advance!<BR>Tania</DIV>

Pilgrims Proverbs were compiled and published during the Holy Jacobean Year
1993; sometimes they may be purchased printed on a large laminated poster-like
board at the Libreria Gonzalez in Santiago's Rua del Vilar.<BR>I'll attempt to
send them twelve at a time, together with an attempted translation into
English. <BR>The proverbs rhyme in Spanish and my translating abilities leave
a great deal to be desired. It would be very good if someone here were
able to provide better translations; if so, perhaps the US Friends of the
Camino or the Santa Barbaras in California could print them as cards, or
something.<BR>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<BR>
