Day 6 Camino: 16 miles

Our last day of walking! We got up early to try and catch the sunrise and left the inn around 8 with our headlights on. We walked with our Israeli friends and met several people we knew along the route. It was bitter sweet- knowing we have walked so far and that it would soon be over. We savored the day, stopping for lots of photos, drinks, and food. It did start drizzling but not bad. There were a lot more people walking with us as everyone made their way to the Cathedral or Santiago; the traditional end of the Camino. We entered the city of Santiago de Compostela, a large city with a lot of hustle and bustle, traffic and noise. But as we made our way to the Cathedral the streets narrowed and wound their way around like a maze lined with stores, inns, and restaurants. There were many other pilgrims heading in our direction and our excitement grew as we made our way through the streets and alleys.
