We Made It!

We started very early. It was sort of hard to believe that this is our last day. Our packs were familiar. We found our waking rhythm quickly. It is NOT flat to Santiago. There was one small mountain and six giant hills. Someone said  that pilgrimages always end high as you have to ascend to God. I remarked to Ernest that God figured out that that wouldn’t work long ago. That is why He descended to us. He did all the work to make A WAY to bring us back to Him.

We walked over 250 miles in 19 days. They were strenous days. They were flavored with sweetness, kindness, humor and joy. May we never forget one moment.

We are now holed up in a warm hotel. We will attend mass in the church tonight. If I am allowed to video the incense    portion I will do so and post it tomorrow.

Buen Camino
