Santiago!!

Today's photos are pure joy! The one of our grandson Ethan, was sent to us many weeks ago from Chris & Dee-Jay.......we'll we did do it Ethan, thank you! The other picture is of our certificates of completion...." The Compostela". We want to share more photos but it poured rain all day again.....so hard that we couldn't take out the camera! ( Barrie's I pad ) . We were soaked rats when we reached the cathedral. Mass was already done for the day, so we just stood in the long line to await the pilgrim office, at the foot of the cathedral, to check all our stamps before awarding us our certificates! We will go back to the cathedral tomorrow for the celebration mass at 10:30 am.  Over whelmed with emotions today! Of the 800 km journey, we managed to walk 574 km with our own two feet!  The rest we mentioned along the blog, because of Dian's painful knees & feet. All in all, still very proud and astonished at what we achieved. Be sure to keep checking our blog, as we hope to have more cool pics tomorrow......as well....a few more mystery locations, before we head back to Canada! Biggest hugs ever.......and thank you again for your comments, love & support!  It really means more than words can express. So helpful to press us on!  B & D xo
