Yesterday on arriving in Santiago, I attended the Taize style prayer service at 4:30 in the chapel at the Pilgrim office. It was a lovely, low keyed and meaningful way to reflect on my journey. It was presented in Spanish and English and is focused on song and reflection. The chapel is just...

Hello everyone :)
Since the cathedral in Santiago de Compostella in under major renovations and mass is not celebrated there, I noticed that there are quite a few churches around the cathedral that do offer mass. My question to you is: What mass/church did you prefer and why?

Hello, I arrive in Santiago on Friday May 24th in the afternoon and leave home from Madrid on Sunday May 26th in morning. I have a couple of options on how to spend the last days in Spain. My original plans didn't work due to renovations at Cathedral.

The climax of the camino must be when the Botafumeiro is swinging during the church service. I read that it will swing on a limited number of days and also when 300€ is paid. By reading many reports it seems that the Botafumeiro also swings on (ir)regulary base.
How much chance do you have...
