• Santiago de Compostela

    October 5, 2024 in Spain ⋅ 🌧 19 °C

    We made it! I walked into Santiago with Irena and Caroline and was number 186 out of 2516 pilgrims who collected their Compostela. Heavy rain all the way from O Pedrouzo, which dampened celebrations a little, but we made up for it later with the pilgrim Mass and a meal out. It felt good to see some familiar faces at the Mass - Stefan, Timo and Sonia, the 3 Spaniards who were often at the same albergues, the four young Italian girls, Gail etc. etc. At least 800km walked plus explorations of the big cities - I feel stronger and look forward to my next adventure! I am so grateful 🙏 to have got here safely and for the multitude of Camino blessings along the way. I’m also very appreciative of my dear husband,, family and friends who have supported and encouraged me every step of the way! Thank you! 🤩Read more
