Subjective feeling out of 10 on:
Enjoyment: 7/10 - always great to finish something you’ve started 😂
Fatigue: 3/10 - feeling really good.
Ease of terrain: 3/10 - a nice walk into the city.
Challenges: the pilgrims offfice has gone high tech - very efficient. But sad your names aren’t hand written anymore. Instead the certificates are printed out. They still look good. But I miss the old way.
My flight got delayed by quite a few hrs. I ended up drinking Wine 🍷 and FaceTiming friends.
Highlights: the Cathedral looks very impressive- it was covered in scaffolding when I was last here in 2019. I had lots of time to chill before my flight this afternoon. I visited the tourist office and they were super helpful and explained how to catch the bus to the airport (€1 and takes Approx 25 mins) she also gave me a map of the city and the bus timetable.
