    We made it! It was so satisfying and very moving to walk into Santiago! As we estimated, it was about 10 miles to get here this morning. (We have walked another 3+ miles within the city.) Although we had rain off and on this morning, it was not raining when we got to the cathedral. The only thing that was not perfect was that Nathan was not with me, which made me cry.

    About a third of the way here our route merged with the French Route ("Frances"). The Northern Route ("Norte") is much less traveled and the alternate that we took the last four days was nearly deserted. Because of that, it was shocking to suddenly be surrounded by LOTS of pilgrims. It sort of spoiled the solitude of our own walk, but of course it's not all about me!    Leia mais
