19th Sept 13 - La Coruna for Santiago de Compostela

Rough night. Mist in early morning. But then a gloriously sunny day.

Took a trip to Santiago de Compostela.

Beautiful Cathedral

The end of the pilgrims way marked with the shell symbol.

On your walking stick

Monk

Most ornate altar. All ready for Mass. It was packed too.

Lovely town full of little streets, squares, balconies...

...and markets. The fish market was particularly impressive

Exceptionally good lunch in the Paradore

After lunch overlooking the main square and cathedral..

Finally, a rather rude gargoyle.
