Entering Santiago de Compostela


Day 6 and we made it in to the Santiago Cathedral. Cold and misty morning, set off in semi darkness, sun eventually rose, walking in woodland then more in the open and eventually beside roads and airport. Cathedral area is so big, so much to see. We needed to get our certificates to say we had done the walk and we joined the queue, took 3 hours, it turned cold, a couple who were behind us from Norway we had spoken with a couple of days prior, then the Australian couple from Yatala we had walked with yesterday appeared, that’s the Camino for you……..anyway we then went and had our first Pilgrims Lunch which was delicious. Staying in excellent accommodation, 2 days ahead of sight seeing, midday mass tomorrow……..hope you are all well and happy
