List This Under Something I'll Do One of These Days: the Chartres Pilgrimage...

One of these days I'm going to make this pilgrimage. A walk of about 75 miles over three days from Notre Dame in Paris to the Cathedral in Chartres. Along the way Masses are offered (in the "Extraordinary Form") and confessions are heard at various stations. The pilgrimage culminates with a Solemn Mass celebrated at Chartres. First made in the 12th century, interrupted from time to time, but more or less an annual event for 800 years. Check out the website (in English) HERE. Check out some pictures below:
