We enjoyed our walk, snow, rain or sunny days on CF, started March 20th 2017.
All the unknowns and how 's vanished away. Since we started walking our way.
There seems always guiding Angels were there, when you needed.
All the ways are marked well except just few places, but never got lost.
All the people we met along the way especially, all 10 of us finally met in Compostela
after got our certificate, saw, they're sitting all together, how excited we all were,
3 from Sanfrancisco, 3 sisters way down from Australia,
2 from Capetown South Africa and 2 of us from Kentucky.
We exchanged our email address to keep in touch.
And two from S. African we met again arriving and leaving both ways from Finisterre.
We had some extra days on our hand, visited Finisterre by bus.
And explore the city of the Compostela. Attended daily mass and Adoration,
hugging the St. James.
There are always finals of good things, this final mass we attended happen to one.
That day no Adoration, so we sat in first pew, in front of the Altar.
Something unique things happened,
before the mass began people gathering and sat near the Altar.
Right before the priest final blessing, it happen so quick, Thurible was lowered
chief Tiraboleiros lighted Frankincense and initiated swing the Botafumeiro
before you realize it, it's in full swing.
How awesome it is to see you're actually present there.
Video tapped some clips, back home on the plane, think of that event got smile on my face.
I thank our Lord, st. James and benefactor, all the mass attendees will have lifetime memories.
My wish was granted. I am home now, got two new credentials, before we left, thinking
celebrating next years Easter in Barcelona........
Buen Camino for now to everyone.
