Santiago de Compostela

Today was a day of celebration! We made it to Santiago shortly before noon, and the rain held off until later in the day. ¡Un milagro! It is always exhilarating to walk into the Praza do Obradoiro and rejoice with all the peregrinos. We had a great send off from our new friend Carmen at the albergue this morning, and then it was only a few hours to Santiago. After soaking in the moment, we toured the cathedral, got our Compostelas, and had a delicious meal. We also visited the Igrexa de San Frutuoso and saw the most beautiful tapete. Tomorrow we will tour more of the cathedral. I am looking forward especially to the tower tour.Læs mere
