Via Francigena: the Old Pilgrim Path to Rome

How did pilgrims arrive in Rome?  Well, they walked.

See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Via_Francigena.

Some of us would really like to see this path again for pilgrim use (like the "Camino de Santiago" in Spain) to lead the youth to Rome.  Pray for this intention.
