- Day 36 – I am home – Date May 20, 2025
- Day 34 – underneath the alter in the cathedral are the bones of St. James the Apostle. There are many routes across Spain for the Camino but I did the French route. It is also called the Way of St. James. It is the most popular route. I wanted to do this one because of it’s connection Jesus’ apostle James.
- Day 34 – Me in the plaza with my certificate and my smile! I am proud of my accomplishment. Thank you for all your support!
- Day 34 – One of my certificates. After I got this, I bought a cheesy T-shirt for St. Jean Pied de Port which is the city in France where I started. It shows the distance on the front (779.5 km) and lists all the villages I walked thru to get to Santiago. I will wear it proudly!
- Day 34 – after mass I went to the plaza where a lot of pilgrims gather after reaching Santiago. From here I went to the pilgrim office to get my certificate of completion.
What a great picture, Trish! So glad you are healing and feeling better. Hope you were able to find the pizza joint and enjoy a couple of much desired glasses of wine. I don’t know if you remember me telling you about the gentlemen at the wine store in Antioch who has walked 2 paths into Santiago but I told him you were walking the Camino Frances and he asks about you every time I go in. He understood your pain as he had a similar experience last fall on his trek and he sends you well wishes as well. I have not shared your blog but he knows you are walking the Camino and asks me how you are doing.
Buen Camino
Yes I remember you telling me about him. Didn’t you say he is doing a talk at the library sometime in the future? You can give him my blog name; I don’t mind. Yes I continue to have physical pain everyday. I am hoping to put it behind me but my left heel is still recovering from a large blister and I still have leg swelling. I am trying to take it a day at a time. Still looking for the pizza relief! 🙂
