Hey pilgrims,
I sent the ipilgrim staff out "on
assignment" this month to attend some of the screenings of "The Way"
starring Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez. Sandy attended the Phoenix
screening, Steve attended the Dallas screening and I attended the
Chicago screening (and -- next week-- the Orlando screening.) Much of
the podcast is dedicated to a review of the movie (from a Camino
perspective.) A word of warning, there may be a "spoiler" or two in our
dialog so if you don't want to know as many details, I recommend you
listen to it after you've seen the movie.
Also, Sandy
came up with her "top ten ipilgrim camino list." I won't give away many
"spoilers" for that. But some of our favorite subjects of clubbing
snorers over the head and clean underwear are mentioned.
10) Look for your tickets early, you will get the better price and
choice of seats (probably)
9) Go shopping for boots, try them all and don't try them on with your
usual socks, try them on with your Camino socks. Break them in.
8) Assume you are not in as good a shape as you think you are, walk
with your backpack and boots for awhile to get used to it
7) Do you really need it? You will be carrying it for 800km
6) You may not snore, but many of us do. Get your earplugs.
5) You do not get a prize for being the first to get to the albergue,
but you might just take your whole shower with hot water. Remember is
not a race, walk in a relaxed manner.
4) It is perfectly normal to turn your underwear inside out if the
other one did not dry.
3) Carry your own toilette paper just in case.
2) Its perfectly normal to have a beer mid-morning after a 10km walk,
don't worry, you do not need to go to confession for it.
1) Crying is acceptable. Be of joy or blisters on your feet.
Buen Camino,
Deborah
