Guardamar to Elx


Fashion and rock and roll; my hosts Silvia and Manuel in Guardamar

Downtown Elche, where there are fewer palm trees

The cathedral in Elche where a medieval Mystery play is still performed

Fellow pilgrims. "It's this way!" "No, it's that way!"

Javi and his dog, Preta. Javi helped me adjust my backpack, and arranged shiatsu for my knees.

Genevieve, or 'Sisi', who gave me the gift of Shiatsu for my knees. This therapy transcended Shiatsu, though.

My hosts Javi and Mabel in the center; my current host Jeroni on the left; and Sisi and Ramón on the right. This after a grand lunch of paella.

Jeroni and Javi; peacemakers, and two of my hosts in Elx (in Valenciano), or Elche (in Castellano). Jeroni speaks English with a good Scottish accent.

A meeting of the '15th of May Movement', originally called 'Toma la Plaza' ('Occupy the Plaza') in Elx. This movement pre-dates 'Occupy Wall Street'.



Circulating 'Down to Egypt' petitions among the '15th of May' movement.
Feeling pretty satisfied with myself
