[QUOTE="dougfitz, post: 1228745, member: 10982"] [HEADING=2][/HEADING] [USER=112439]@Camo[/USER], you asked three questions: [LIST] [*]Will I get to see the botafumiero? You have repeatedly claimed in posts in other threads that you are not able to undertake a pilgrimage, but if you are travelling to Santiago to Compostela for other reasons, you might. [*]Is it true that it it only gets swung on special holy days? No. It does, but these are not the only times. You have many answers to that question. [*]Do I have to plan my whole pilgrim trip around one of those days? I am assuming that this has an unstated condition that you want to see the botafumerio in action. The answer for those forum members who are planning their pilgrimage is of course you don't. While attending mass might be one of the traditional pilgrim observances on arrival to Santiago, there is no special significance attached to attending one where the botafumeiro is used as far as I can tell. [/LIST] If your sole interest is understanding the plot lines and literary and cinematographic references of a fictional pilgrimage, then deference is also due to L Frank Baum and Jack Hitt who wrote the original works around which one of the Estevez family stories has been framed.
