So ask me sometime about the unabridged story about me and the Japanese man. I think it's funny (confirmed by two Korean girls I met at dinner) but it's too late and I'm tired from walking almost 40km. For those of you keeping track at home, that's almost 25 miles. With my pack. The day after I crossed the Pyrenees in rain and wind. Needless to say, I need to get to bed (after some stretching!). I need to be back in walking shape for tomorrow. I kept thinking about it at dinner and laughing to myself. Although, I will close with the fact that the girls were impressed by both my Korean and Spanish skills so I feel affirmed. Or maybe it was pity because of how far I had walked. Regardless, let's compromise with impressed with caveats (for not being born there and enough to get by)? P.S. I'm in another dorm tonight. I noticed this last night as well, but it's even more apparent because I have stayed up so much later than everyone else. Maybe it's the high percentage of "older" people or I haven't slept in a room of 20+ people in a long time, but it's a regular orchestra of snoring and farting. Someone just farted again as I was typing that last sentence!

In 32 days, I have walked from the mountain border to the ocean. One more day and I reach "land's end," Finisterre. Then you can call me Forrest, Forrest Gump, because I just...

	16. Santiago de Compostela, Spain May 24 2012, 07:33 PMSantiago de Compostela, Spain2 comments Made it. :) Feeling very thankful, blessed and tired. I had heard that they give the pilgrims who earn the compostela a shout out so pushed myself to arrive today so I can hear it in mass tomorrow. I'll be taking my first break day tomorrow to check out the sights and pilgrim watch before...
