Finally, last three days of the Camino for Ron and Rémi- Saunday, the 26, Monday, the 27, and Tueusday, the 28th. From Pala de Rwi to Rebadiso- 26.5 km. it was another rainy day. Te lunch stop along the way was in Melide for octopus or pulpa. It was the first try for the boys. Rémi was reluctant to try it as not all seafood agrees with him. Luckily they all enjoyed the delicacy. They walked with Jacques, Fiona, and Barry. They crossed six different rivers that day.

One of the many stone bridges to cross.

50 km to go.

The pulpa (octopus) for lunch. They have a great presentation.

Cute familly of dogs hanging out by the grain storage.

Muddy trails of the last few days.

Walk through a Eucalyptus forest. Great aroma on a rainy day. 

Typical pre-dinner drink after a long trek. 

Monday- Ribadiso to Pedrouzo - 22 km. Another poncho day and a hard climbing day as well. More banter with princess Fiona and the silver wombats.

Rémi wearing the original pilgrim's outfit.

Another direction markers. 

Rémi's leading the pack with Fiona and Barry behind him. 

Typical forest during the last three days.

Tuesday, Pedrouzo to SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA- 21km. Finally the sun came out for the last day of the journey. It was an easy but boring  walk as it went through forest and some industrial sections, past the airport into SANTIAGO. The five Aussies and Canadians walked in together around 11:30. I was there to meet them at Puerto do Camino.

A monument on Monte Gozo overlooking SANTIAGO. 

Getting closer!

I finally see them arriving.
