October 10, 2014 Friday Finnestera, The End of the World, The End of my Camino

I wanted to end my Camino at Finnestera which is the End of the World in the old days.
FINI, NO MORE WALKING FOR 9-11 Hrs. Per day, 19 -21 miles which is what I had to do to reach Muxia & Finnestera. I was able to get the Muxiana & Finnesterana certificates but had to make sure I walked the whole way by getting stamps/cello in certain towns, 2 are required. The last 2 days of walking was the hardest because of the distance. Anyhow, I finally walked the 500 miles ending here in Finnestera. I have to say today has been quite an experience. Young Ae Shin from South Korea & I were walking towards the Lighthouse. A car stopped & the driver motioned for us to come & he said he'll give us a ride to the Lighthouse. Maybe having walked 19-21 miles the last 2 days in the rain, the top of my right foot started to hurt after checking in at the Albergue to get our certificate, so I was a bit limping. At any other time I would NEVER hitch a ride but there was only this one road & Young was with me. His name is Jose & his Mother is 95 years old. He is only 58, Young is 61 & moi, is 70. Anyhow, he took us further up the mountain & what a great view of the whole town of Finnestera & beyond, Muxia. He said he goes there everyday to just relax & smoke his cigarette. He showed us the 2 Rocking Rocks. Unbelievable that I could make this 2 huge rocks move. Here's the video.

October 10, 2014 Friday on the way to Finnestera

This was my first beautiful scene this morning, almost a full moon. I left the Xunta Hostel at 07:00 A M which of course is still dark. It is the hardest part of the walk because I really have to watch out for the markerrs with the help of my headlamp.

The beautiful coast of Muxia October 9,2014 Thursday

This is the Sanctuario de Virgen de la Barca & the beautiful rocks in front. If you had seen the movie The Way, this was where Martin Sheen had spread the ashes of his son.
