Pèlerins à travers les siècles

Hiking family climb over a rocky beach to visit St Govan’s chapel. Built into the side of a limestone cliff, the building measures 20 by 12 feet (6.1 m × 3.7 m) with walls constructed from limestone, and consists of two chambers, one in the front and one in the back.[1] The majority of the chapel was built in the thirteenth century, although parts of it may date back further to the sixth century when Saint Govan, a monk moved into a cave located on the site of the chapel. One legend suggests that Saint Govan is buried underneath the chapel's altar, located at the east end of the building.

Souvenir shops line up along the streets in the town at the foot of Nui Sam. The shops specialise in selling souvenirs for pilgrims, which means they must be conservable as you see in the photo.

 

The most notable souvenir in Nui Sam seemed to be salt-preserved fish meats as displayed in the centre of the photo, which are collectively called "mắm."

Fish meat ferments without toxic bacterias if stored with salt even in the tropical climate.

 

Nước mắm, the fish source that provides a basis for Vietnamese cooking, is the water (nước) exuding from fermenting fish meat. I admire the first people who tried the liquid with an odd smell.

 

There is a variation to preserve fish meat, which does not only add salt but also cooked rice. It produces lactic fermentation, and fish meat is preserved with slightly sour taste. This is the original Sushi that is found in Sutheast Asia, southern China, as well as in Japan.

 

What is known as Sushi in the world is its instant version that skips the fermentation process, which was invented in the 18th century in Edo (present-day Tokyo). It's a drastic departure from the original purpose of preservation.

The pilgrim is everywhere a stranger unknown to men.

The Pilgrim is a full sized replica of the hide brig that Richard Henry Dana Jr worked on and wrote about in his novel Two Years Before the Mast. Anchored in Dana Point Harbor, California. The Ocean Institute operates an education program that teaches children about the history of seafaring and how to work the rigging and other chores of the crew of a tall ship.

I just could not resist this shot. The sheep, it seems were going to undertake the new walking trail of the Columban way that has been recently developed. Turas Columbanus, also known as the Columban Way, traces the journey of Saint Columbanus, an Irish monk of the late 6th and early 7th century through Ireland, England, France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein and Italy from his birth place in the shadow of Mount Leinster on the Carlow-Wexford border to his resting place in Bobbio, south of Milan in northern Italy.

The Pilgrim's Way is the historic walking route to Holy Island. The route is marked by large wooden poles and is covered by water twice a day, when the tide is in. This is how the original pilgrims have made the causeway crossing for hundreds of years since 635 AD. Travelling on foot or horseback at low tide was actually the only way to access Lindisfarne until 1954 when the modern road was built.

No need to comment on this, thanks

A local Instagram group, @igersboston, organized a day trip to Provincetown on Cape Cod by getting 30 of us free tickets from @bostonharborcruises on the ferry. It was a great event and super fun!

 

My favorite activity was climbing the Pilgrim Monument - according to their brochure, it is 252 feet high and the climb is 116 stair steps and 60 ramps. Got my exercise for the day!

Another photo from my archives before Covid when so much was taken for granted. The annual Festival of Sails which is the highlight of Labor Day weekend in the San Diego harbor is usually attended by approximately 125,000 people over the three-day event. I'm hoping the pandemic will have run its course after over two years and the festival will again resume this year.

 

In researching The Pilgrim, I was shocked to discover that in 2020 while it was docked in Dana Point it met its demise. "One of the most iconic visuals at Dana Point Harbor is no more, as Pilgrim, the resident tall ship at the Ocean Institute dock, keeled over in her slip overnight, it was announced on March 29. Pilgrim’s useful life was rendered over as a result."

 

Pilgrim, which measured 98 feet in length and had a beam of 24.6 feet, arrived in Dana Point as a replica in 1981.

 

I guess we all have an expiration date, even a Tall Ship.
