Hi everyone, if you are in Santiago today, there is an Amazing Lady arriving. I was sent a Facebook screenshot of the message for Mabel Smith, 92, who is completing her Camino Francés today (SJPP to SdC). See attached image of screenshot:

Thanks Bradypus, the screenshot I was sent had been cropped, so pictures were not visible. I'm not on FB, so I couldn't look it up.

I think that Sandra Levin from the Camino Pilgrim Facebook group will not mind me sharing the photo which she posted to the group yesterday after meeting Mabel at Finisterre.
