   Syn: Tour; excursion; trip; expedition; pilgrimage.

   Usage: {Journey}, {Tour}, {Excursion}, {Pilgrimage}. The word
          journey suggests the idea of a somewhat prolonged
          traveling for a specific object, leading a person to
          pass directly from one point to another. In a tour, we
          take a roundabout course from place to place, more
          commonly for pleasure, though sometimes on business.
          An excursion is usually a brief tour or trip for
          pleasure, health, etc. In a pilgrimage we travel to a
          place hallowed by our religions affections, or by some
          train of sacred or tender associations. A journey on
          important business; the tour of Europe; an excursion
          to the lakes; a pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
