• Day in Santiago - Cathedral Rooftop

    April 27, 2024 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F

    Today we slept in. It was like a Camino hangover. It had been raining for 24 hours straight with no sign of letting up. We had beat the rain to Santiago by about 45 minutes and mentioned over and over how lucky and grateful we were.

    We finally braved the rain to get something to eat and get our souvenir shopping done. We kept watching the weather app and took a chance there would be a break in the rain and purchased tickets for an afternoon roof top tour of the Cathedral. Then back to the apartment for a nap.

    Once again we had amazing weather luck and the rain held off for the tour. Wow! What an amazing tour it was. We did not understand a word, since it was all in Spanish, but the views were incredible and being that high on the cathedral roof was exhilarating to say the least. One last evening in Santiago as we have a glass of wine and wait for our favorite Italian restaurant (again) to open for our last dinner here.

    It has been an amazing adventure. The Camino never disappoints.
