This year's cross:

This diary tells the story, pretty much as it happened, of our 2005 pilgrimage from Canterbury to Winchester. It was put together ‘live’ - each day's page usually being written that evening or, if time did not allow, the next day. It represents our pilgrimage as we experienced it at the time.

During the two weeks of our walk, our live diary had a large following: from pilgrims' families, friends and parishes; from those who would have liked but were unable to join with us this year; as well as from others unknown to us. Thank you to all you e-pilgrims, who joined with us in spirit through the Internet, followed us each day and sent us your messages of support and requests for prayer - all of which were added to our prayer intention box, which was offered at our Celebration Mass in Winchester.

This diary will now remain here indefinitely, as a reminder to all of us of our pilgrimage and, perhaps, to give an insight into modern pilgrim life which may entice others to join us in the years to come.

Feel free to print pictures for personal use as desired, but bear in mind that photos have been downsized for display and may not print too well. You can now order ‘real’ photo prints of this year's pictures via online photo-sharing service ICD Photos. Use the ‘Order Prints’ button, which appears at the top and bottom of each page. The appropriate ICD Photos album will open in a new window.
