Oct 14
Twenty km (12 miles) left for our Camino to be complete! Thursday by noon we will have arrived In Santiago de Compostela, Spain, six weeks and 800 km (480 miles) after starting in Saint Jean Pied-de-Port, France.
A highlight for some peregrinos (pilgrims) is receiving their Compostela Certificate. We have carried ‘passports’ and collected stamps at multiple places of interest and places we stayed. Some pilgrims even line up to receive their passport stamps, which are generally free of charge, but some might require a ‘donation’ of a dollar or two if music is provided or the stamp is extra fancy.
We have seen many father/son pairs on the paths, and even several dogs accompanying their masters on their long walks.
One more day- we are excited!!!
