12:00 Pilgrims Mass

We are early but the line was already long getting into Cathedral so we went in and just found a seat..
The main altarpiece is stunning... and Botafumeiro is hung... so I am definitely hoping 🙏
Meanwhile just taking pictures of anything near to our seats...

Santiago
The Big organ
Going into St.James' Crypt
Memorial plaque to Pope John Paul II

So... Botafumeiro DID fly... 😁🙏❤....but try as I may I couldn't upload it to Google Drive ( too large of a file to attach here so I thought I put it there and then provide the link) so most likely I will have to wait till I get home to try to finish that piece off.
Meanwhile here is the rest of the pictures

P.S. As promised - here is the link to the video with Botafumeiro. Because we were sitting facing the Center of the Altar I can only video that part and unfortunately we cannot see Botafumeiro going the whole length of its path.
None the less, it was AWESOME and magical!
