Since Samos we have covered more than 130kms to reach the end of our Pilgrimage. We have been up many hills, over more medieval bridges, through cobbled streets in old villages, down shady lanes and old oak forests.
At the 65km marker we got our photo taken as this meant we had walked 700kms..Shared this with the 2 Carol´s from Hobart. Finished this evening by watching Barcelona draw/win the soccer.
For all the in depth info you will need to attend our slide night....serving vinto of course.
We just want to let you all know that we have finished but will spare you all the ins and outs of every day.......of our most incredible, amazing, awesome, beautiful, stunning, wonderful journey/ adventure of a lifetime!!!!! Hope you are getting the picture!
We are now heading to "The End of the World" so stay tuned...we plan to have a dip in the Atlantic!
Thursday night we will be slumbing it at the Parador de Santiago - Hostal Reis Catolicos.

About the hotel .
Parador Santiago de Compostela
Combining history, art and tradition, the goal of pilgrims and the emblem of St. James, the Hostal dos Reis Catolicos, in the Plaza do Obradoiro, forms together with the cathedral one of the world’s most remarkable, and most visited, urban settings. Parador de Santiago de CompostelaThe Hostal, which first saw life as a Royal Hospital in 1499 to house the many pilgrims arriving in Santiago, today still invites the traveller to enjoy this universal and fascinating city.
Considered the oldest hotel in the world, it is also one of the most luxurious and beautiful. It has four extremely beautiful cloisters, elegant public rooms, spectacular bedrooms and a luxurious dining room offering Galician style fish and meats and the classic apple filloa pies and creme brulee.
