Arco

We made it nicely to Arco, just 18 kilometers from Santiago. Patsy said she would take a rest day, but not with just one more day to walk. It should be an easy day tomorrow. We should get to Santiago by 12 or 1 pm and get our Certificate and see the cathedral. I think it depends on the weather what else we do. It may rain tomorrow and the next few days. Ryan air only flys from Santiago to Frankfort on Saturday and Tuesday, so we have to decide to leave just the day after we arrive or stay an extra day.

The last 100 kilometers certainly has had none of the interest the first 600 kilometers did. It is much more crowded with less comradary. We are still seeing people we have not met in a long time. (pardon the spelling but the blog tells me none of my words are spelled correctly in Spanish).

We have been accompanying a french woman and her donkey, Sherpa. He is quite the pet and, I think, a good companion. We have seen one other donkey and several dogs walking the Camino.
