The Preparation: Films

Los Pilgrims will be preparing for the US with an outdoor (unless its raining) film festival to introduce Los de Ottos to the US. Please list films that we should show in the comments section.

The Preparation: Guacamole

This weekend Liz and Clay are hosting a BBQ with a competitive "Guacomolada" (Catalan for Guacamole Festival). Despite a history of poor judgement expressed by voters, Liz expects her perfect guacamole to reign supreme this year. Guacamole with a gold medal will taste even better when consumed in the homes of friends and families throughout the US during the August trip.

The Preparation: Rodeo

Manolo de Otto is preparing for the West by visiting the Spanish National Rodeo Championships on his brother's horsefarm this weekend in the Pyrenees mountain range (between France and Spain).

Michael Walters to join Los Pilgrims

Michael Walters is tentatively scheduled to join the merry band of pilgrims for a Wednesday to Friday run this summer. Itinerary determines whether he sees the Southeast, Southwest, Midwest or full on West.

The Driver. Not driving in this photo but will be driving when you see him. A philosopher, psychologist, analyst.

Pilgrim Profile: Manolo de Otto



His name is Manolo de Otto. He is an intrepid explorer of sea and land. Resident of Barceloneta, Barcelona, Spain. First time in America.

Looking forward to hearing some killer jazz in New Orleans. Also plans to eat well and laugh until it hurts.
