Sign, Sign, Everywhere A Sign!

In less than a week, The 'To The End Of The World' documentary crew will be taking on the Camino de Santiago Compostela. The signs are everywhere, proof with some of my pictures, and all lead westwards to St-James.

The shell is the logo for the Way, and trail blazes for the hike bear it. Some logos are more recent, with the abstract shell, and others more antique. The shell is a symbol of wonder(comes from the ocean) and beauty(associated with the goddess Venus). It can also be a sign that something strange is going to happen to you...

Hmm.. Interesting......
