The Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela is a centuries old trek across northern Spain done by following "The Camino de Santiago", the road to Santiago. Before February of 2001 I had not heard of "The Camino" nor of the Pilgrimage. By the end of October of that year I was in Santiago after completing the walk myself. I thought that when I reached Santiago my journey was over but I see now that my journey started way before I got to Spain and still has not ended.

Lost In Translation
"This is a goodbye kiss from the Iraqi people, dog. This is from the widows, the orphans and those who were killed in Iraq." -Muntazer al-Zaidi, Iraqi reporter, while hurling his shoes at President Bush.
Bush on the shoe thrower, "I don't know what his beef is, but whatever it is, I'm sure someone will hear it."
What we have done to Iraq will haunt us for a long time.
