Can you imagine 10,000 pilgrims all walking together 75 miles from Paris to Chartres Cathedral? Sounds pretty awesome!

Chartres 2008
I got these pics over at Andrew Cusacks blog. I am hoping to go to Chartres next year, unfortunately time, money and personal circumstances did not permit this year. Enjoy!

Sadly only the Anglicans would do this over here...
That's true. I was passing an Epsicopal Church in Edinburgh last year on the feast of Corpus Christi and they were outside with full show of the liturgy and a 'blessed sacrament' procession with some of the congregation spreading rose petals on the ground around the church as the vicar basically processed with the monstrance. I nearly passed out.
JP:
That would be St Michael & All Saints - my old stomping ground.
Now, when you get the gen about Chartres 2009, do let me know. I really want to go!
