(Distance: 34 kms Time: 10 hours)
We left Santiago this morning on our way to Finisterre. It was a perfect way to leave Santiago ... early in the morning, with some of our new Camino family (Angeliek, Christian, Jolee, Betsy and me). As we made our way out of the city and up a small hill, we turned and looked back to Santiago and there all lighted up in the middle of the dark city still asleep was the Cathedral. It was just the right way to close our Camino and move on to Finisterre and "the end of the world". At lunch Josee and Christian decided to stay in that town while Angeliek, Betsy and I walked on. The trail was hot and mostly uphill so it tok us much longer than we anticipated and we stopped short of our goal. So tomorrow we will walk some more but probably at some point take a taxi to the destination for the day so that we can keep our time table and hopefully catch up with a couple of other Camino family members before we all disperse and head back to our real lives.
