The Naked Pilgrim

Figured this would get everyones attention!  Pervs!

Ok, the story actually begins back in Roncesvalles. As Silvie and I walked along, about a km or more, we spot a jacket hanging on the gate of a field.  This isn´t just any old worn jacket. It was a nice red Gortex hiking jacket!  Figured someone put it down to take a pic and forgot it.

A day later, we see a pair of gray pants on a bush.  Hmmmmm?

Next day, what to my wondering eyes should appear but a pair of shoes or were they hiking boots, on a wire high high above the road. 

By this time the theory of the Naked Pilgrim had evolved and was a source of endless entertainment as we struggled up and down the hills.  The clincher came when we found a small pack on the edge of a medieval bridge coming out of Ciraque! 

Apparently the Naked Pilgrim, load completely lightened, is now streaking towards Santiago de Compostella.  Wonder if he remembered to keep his Credencial in hand to prove that he´d actually made the journed? Sure hope so.

  1. Do you think he'll add clothes back on when he heads back the other way? If not, you're in for a surprise!
