Lunch in a pirates cove.

We had the most AMAZING seafood lunch inside a pirates cavern. The guy who served us - likely the owner - looked like a pirate as well. Did I mention the amazing  seafood?

There is a photo of a thing in my hand. I have no idea but man ugly... And fabulous!! I think they are some sort of urchin that grown in the rocks.

Fish, prawns, cockles , mussels.. Yum!!





Pilgrims Mass

Wow. Incredible. All in Latin but so moving. Couldn't believe how many pilgrims there were- and its every day. 
A nun spoke alot to introduce thing.. all in Latin ..but you could tell she would have been a real wag, she got the cathedral singing in Latin like a game show host.

The swinging of the incense was intensely moving. Although no photos were supposed to be taken.. I tried to capture it.. For a huge vessel, it moved damned fast!!







The end of the way..

Its another 100 km to the sea, an extra  pilgrimage for many who need some finality to their walk.

We hired a car after going to the pilgrims mass and went to the end if the workd. Beautiful..

We got to the 0 mark... Aits customary lto burn your clothes at thr end. There were lots of smoldering ( stinky) clothes. Age sat on the clifside and stared out to sea. He threw away his shoes.
