Santiago de Compostella...
...was further away than I remember.
The last 3 kilometres seemed like forever and my footsteps were really heavy.
When I finally arrived at in front of the huge catedral I decided that I would treat myself good. Really good. So I have checked in to a **** "Albergue" - with a huge bed, a big bathtub... I also signed up for a VERY good massage which was done by Toni. Also tomorrow there will be a huge breakfast... (buffet - with EVERYTHING).
All day I have been in an arguement with myself. I cannot decide wheter I should continue on foot to Finisterre or if I should go by bus. A part of me really want to continue on foot, another part of me says "enough". But of course, I cannot stay in my 4 star "albergue" as this will empty my bankaccount completely.
By the way, I went to the pilgrims office to get my compostella. Now I have 4 of them. My name in Latin Annam (I think it used to be Annem!?).
In a second I wil go get something really healthy to eat, as I am hungry and I loooong for something really good. (besides Pulpo Galego). So I only hope that the restaurant I have in mind have a table for me... as I do not have anyone to eat with tonight... there is no one here I know, they wil all arrive the next couple of days.
I will write more about the journey later. Right now I just wanted to check in and let you all know that I am here... I feel good and also tired.
Now to the restaurant.
