May 28 Finesterre to the lighthouse. 8.4 miles 19, 716 steps





Oh such a day!  Buffet breakfast at our hotel followed by a pack less walk through town to then lighthouse.  What a difference no pack is!  My toes were dancing around and CC could hardly keep up with me!  The pics will speak for the views as well as for the lunch we had on the way back. 





 The rest of this day is being spent napping, writing, talking, planning.

Right now I'm sitting in the lounge area having a glass of wine and so e type of seafood enchilada type tapa that the server just brought to me.  That's the tradition here.  The tapas arrive without charge during the early evening hours.

Our bodies know that they can rest now and they are responding well.  

Today we met the couple from Ireland who we first met in Negreira.  The Yukon couple arrived yesterday.  We'd met them in Santiago.



Otherwise it's just the two of us.  This last part has been for us.  Every so often, we have private renewals of our vows.  O e took place a few years ago in the Virgin Islands.  Some of you know that.  We had another private moment in the church in Santiago during the Pilgrim Mass.  No big hoopla; just a simple, "let's make this a renew our vows moment."  

What has happened on this trip is that the edges have smoothed and because so many of the daily pressures and worries and hurries have receded, we can take the time to notice the negative habits that can sometimes overwhelm a long term relationship.  We are fortunate, so fortunate that we can talk with each other, thus bringing in more laughter and ease.  

Craig's off walking on the beach now undoubtedly coming back with more treasures to add.  

A very light dinner later tonight will end this perfect day.  

This was part of breakfast .
