It is my second time with the bittersweet feeling that you experienced on the last day of the journey to Santiago de Compostela. We left our hostel at 6:40 am. We knew that the day was going to be a challenging 14 miles with long uphills and downhills.
Allow me to start with the arrival to Praza do Obradoiro and the feeling that you get when you realized that it is KM 0 at the impressive cathedral. Here are some pictures:
During the 15 miles walk today you cannot stop reflecting on the experience you had on the last 10 days. The camino gives you pain, pleasure, laugh and clarity on what is important and what is not.
The walk started in the dark with a lot of up and down
As we were getting close to the cathedral, your emotions run high and you see the signs everywhere
After getting our Compostela certificates we had a wonderful lunch and celebrated with a bottle of Cava
We them walked to the hotel
Thanks to everyone that has been following our adventure.
Tomorrow, we will attend mass in the cathedral and we will write about the experience
Cheers

Been thinking of you and thinking how crazy you are walking all these miles but also thinking what a wonderful experience you have had. I’ve enjoyed the pictures so much. Please tell your daughter that Steve really doesn’t lie but exaggerates sometimes 😂. It must be wonderful to share this experience with your daughter. God bless you all. Ellen

Hello Ellen, it was a fantastic way to build memories for my daughter. Regarding Steve, it has been a good joke and a pain relief during her journey. I actually created a WhatsApp group with her and Steve and they have been chatting and laughing about. Steve is a great friend of our family. I am glad you enjoyed
