Santiago De Compostela

Arrived at St. James Cathedral before noon on October 8th joined by Bill & Aster who had caught up along The Way.  Attended the noon Pilgrims Mass and toured the church.  Quite elaborate and ornate. 

After Mass, we went to the pilgrimage office and received our compostela certificates after a 1.5 hour wait in line with other pilgrims.
