Santiago

Yesterday we decided to push through to our final destination. We got here late in the afternoon. It was a beautiful day for walking sun mixed with cloud and a little cool.

There were many people milling around the cathedral square. We tried to get our compostela but there was a long line.

We found a tourist office and located a hotel where we went to get cleaned up.

In the evening we went back to rhe old city and got our compostela. We went into the cathedral and joined a mass.  Then we celebrated by having paella at a restaurant.

Today I attended the pilgrim mass. The place was packed. Unfortunately I didn't see anyone I knew.
