As the pirate adventurers left King Arthur, we noticed that we ere being followed by the Frenchies! We opted to hide out by going on a pilgrimage with these random 30 people who were on their way to Canterbury Cathedral. We have to make sure we know who these people are in case we have PROVE that we are PILGRIMS.

Today, we read The General Prologue of the Canterbury Tales (go download it from the Canterbury Tales folder). First block read up to the Franklin, and 2nd and 3rd read up to the Friar.

If you take notes, you will be able to use those notes on the final exam next month. Remember that the notes and the highlighting are where I get the questions for the final exam.

Here’s a picture of Aly looking very sad because she was EXCOMMUNICATED and doomed to go to Hell. Sad Aly.
