Change in the weather.

... the city which contains all the old buildings and churches is pedestrianised and huddles round the grand cathedral. The Cathedral is vast and very ornate. The guide books say that is best seen in the rain so that all the lichens and mosses are highlighted. The weather duly obliged!

The car has decided to have a sick day and has gone to the Ford dealer to recuperate! We collect it tonight and move on to Portugal in the morning.

Hi All

Sitting in a restaurant waiting for our pizzas - we are all done with bocadillos - dry, dry bread with slices of cheese and dried out ham. Sorry to say I forgot my hat two nights ago but we ended up at a albergue off the track which was a piece of heaven. The bunk beds which I have a permanent bruise on the top of my head from, were quite comfortable, complete with sheets and ...

Free weekend in Santiago!

... and then, naturally, real shopping) for a while, then sat at another cafe and got a quick snack, since it was about 7:30. We then changed quickly and went back to the same "Carpe Diem" bar we had been at the night before. When we got there, we saw a waiter we had seen there the night before. Friday night, this dude had been running laps around the block, stopping after each lap to check on the bar and make sure everything was ok, which we found pretty weird ...

Galicia, day 3!

... for dinner Spanish time, so we planned on just getting drinks. However, the place we sat at ended up giving us a plate with lots of pieces of boob cheese and 2 large empanadas, and another plate with 2 slices of cake, plus free drinks, so we ended up staying there for a while. Around 10:30, we met up with the other 3 girls and walked around for a while, looking for somewhere to have a bottle of wine and talk for a while. However, this turned out to be a much more complicated ...

My Santiago review (English version only)

I’ve said it before, although Springsteen is my musical hero, there is one man who clearly had a phenomenal impact on the musical world as we know it: Elvis Presley. So imagine my happiness when I saw the gigantic Burnin’ Love sign. It was collected by Springsteen, right after Steven Van Zandt said something to him – his influence? I’d like to think so  Hot requests ...

El Camino de Santiago

According to legend, the body of Christ's Apostle James was brought to Galicia. It is said that there was a time of intense shooting stars above the area and that when they excavated they found the tomb of St. James. In 813 the relicts were supposedly discovered at Santiago de Compostela where a cathedral was built in his honor. The city was named Compostela from -campus stellae- or "the field ...

Buen Camino

... city...but not for three days. We reflected on the journey and found it to be good...but maybe too long. We decided that it would have been more fun with a group of people. We wished that we had just booked our tickets from Madrid instead of Santiago. Then we might have gone on and had more with which we might amuse ourselves. The idea of a pilgrim walk ...

Myth Busters

True or False? Europen women don't shave. True! They wax! One word ˇOuchy! Prepair to witness the worst experience of my life! (well, aside from the dumb idea of piercing my tongue that one time..or when I crashed over the handle bars of a moped) My wonderful Italian friend Vera got the great idea that I should wax before we go on Carnaval. So... dressed half way in our funky costumes- I started the first step to self induced torture!

Walking, walking, and ummm more walking...

... of trails originatining from almost every corner of europe that lead to this spot. One of the most popular is a 600 mile trek from France aptly called the French Route. We chose this route, but had to start a little closer than France as we only had 5 days to walk. We covered an average of 25 kilometers a day, as the blisters on my friends heels attest to. Also carried all our supplies, clothes, etc.. Since people ...

Santiago De Compostela, Spain bigred
Puffs until 8!

I'm in a wonderfully beautiful city, Santiago de Compostella. It's a medieval carless town and the terminus of a (very popular) Catholic pilgrimage across the north of Spain-- Camino de Santiago.

The best part about this town is that it's still devoted to the people who live here. In many of these well-preserved towns, the locals don't go into the old-town because it's devoted to tourists.

So, I arrived and it turns out there's a festival, guess I'll be staying a little longer ...
