Javierada

(I'm sorry/ I'm having some trouble adding the pictures to my blog. The one on the left is of Estey and I when we were in Westfield being really cool. And the one one on the right is of the big parish church in Estella *Lizarra* called San Pedro.)

It´s 10:15 and I just got back from a 50 km Javierada (pilgrimage to a Castillo called Javier) that was crazy! We left at 6:00 in the morning and got there at 4:15. Mass was at 5:00. Last year was the 500 year celebration of the birth of San Francisco Javier (Francis Xavier) and there were tons of Jesuits at this Castillo that´s now a seminary, I think. It was very impressive and thousands of people make this pilgrimage each year in Navarre for two different weekends near his feast day. I´ll write more about this later because now I´m going to go to bed!

YES! 50 KM!! It was great! I'm going to write about it more. And hopefully get some good pictures up soon! I'm just on my way to see the doctor for a checkup on my lip that's looking good (a little fat but what else is new...).
