Day 51: Day of Rest

Today is a day of rest! 

I am really exhausted, emotionally, as well as physically. Tomorrow I plan to take the bus (yes, really) to Finnesterre, the end of the world as far as the ancients knew. 

Yes, I had planned to walk the 100 km but time will not allow as I fly to Prague early Saturday morning. Besides, I am tired!! 

I will post pictures.


I went to 3 pilgrim Masses where they swung the fumeria over us. It was extremely emotional for all of us. This was in the incredible Cathedral in Santiago. The gold in the cathedral was incredible!!

The 8 monks are pulling the ropes for the fumeria .
It is hard to see the actual urn full of burning incense in the picture .




I like the simpler churches better. 
It was neat to visit his tomb though and to attend the Pilgrim Mass there.
