Not willing to wait hours to hug the apostle during the Feast of St. James, my husband and I hugged the Administrator, Ivar Rekve. It really was a rock star moment.
Thank you, Ivar, for giving us your time and help with tomorrow’s start to Fisterra. You are a lovely and gracious man.

2013! He handed me the package I had mailed to him from SJPP. Unfortunately, it was only afterwards that I became aware of his contribution to our lives, and his celebrity status. :)
Thanks Ivar.

What a great idea! I'll have to do that when I get there in October. I've already done the hug thing twice.

Ivar, my husband and I meet you a few years ago and it was a pleasure! We thank you for the YouTube videos with updates. We know you live in Santiago currently but we wondered where you are originally from. We are keeping our hopes to return in August but have learned to be flexible.
