Thursday, 4.Nov. Cee to Fisterra, 14 miles 

(supposed to be 10, but we just kept walking to the end and back…)
My Last Day.

Today was a wonderful day. No rain until late at night, so walked in the cool with the sun and a bit of breeze. Through forests and towards the ocean. 

I walked onto the beach – what a wonderful way to finish the Camino. I talked with a Swedish woman (Rick had stayed on the real path to save his ankle), she and I had both started in St. Jean. She felt the same as I did, we had completely loved the journey and there were more Caminos in our future. She was collecting scallops to bring home. I hadn’t thought of that, but had already taken this photo of front and back of a scallop. It still had it’s animal, so didn’t collect. I collected after. All these scallop shells! Maybe St. James really did fall into the water and come out covered with scallop shells. 

Rick and I had a hot chocolate with this view and saw one more church:

One more pilgrim statue:

Then we were there!

Camino Frances to Santiago per my certificate, 779k. Santiago to Fisterra, 83k. Extra walking in towns 30k. Total 892k, 554 miles. 

And when I finished, it actually didn’t feeling like an ending, it felt like a beginning. Rick asked how I felt with such an accomplishment, but that didn’t feel like the right word. Truly, felt like I’d just gotten started and I’m going to keep going. Guess the Camino worked its magic and it hasn’t stopped. I have loved this journey.
