Completo!

Yesterday we marched the final steps into Santiago! The completion of 32 days of walking and 765km´s came with mixed feelings. Relief, joy, excitement and tiredness. While everyone says the journey is more important than reaching the goal, it was wonderful to finally reach the desired destination. It was a joy too to meet and congratulate other fellow walkers arriving into the cathedral square. Pilgrims celebrated together and greeted one another all over the city as we kept bumping into familiar faces that we´d shared a room with or walked with a little along the trail.

It was strange indeed not to rush out of bed this morning and prepare for a day of walking many kilometres. Today we have been enjoying this beautiful city, alive with energy and people. There are far more religious tourists here than pilgrims... more about that later.

On Sunday we fly across the country, catch a bus to France and prepare for our onward journey to the USA for meetings... and the world of reality again.

When we get access to better internet we will post some more photos and some final reflections... but we are here!
