We didn't make the trip (pilgrimage) all the way to that ancient church in France just to see Mary Madelene's toe. We just saw an interesting village (I forget the name) on top of a pointed hill that looked fascinating (when we travel we just wander around without a set schedule) so we stopped to investigate. Upon entering the church we saw a sign that said the toe was in the catacombs under the church. Under those circumstances we could not resist, and I'll bet neither could you. LOL

If every place that claimed to have a piece of her actually did, she'd have had to have had 278 toes and 385 fingers. ;)

I can understand that ... I would look but not seek it out no matter whose toe it was. I've seen too many of those forensic science shows and they look like shriveled up grapes ...yuk!!! Its' creepy.
