Well folks!

Here I am standing in front of the West Door of the shrine of St. James in Santiago de Compostela. It has been a long last few days and it must seem quite a while since my last post. Yet, internet access in the last few days has been limited and I have to admit that the end has seemed just one day further away!

I have a whole host of emotions really bubbling up at once - from being thankful for a safe arrival which at times in the early days seemed impossible; to some regrets at not seeing some of those whom I have travelled with again so soon; as well as a great deal of gratitude to those of you whose prayers I am absolutely sure have been the means by which I have managed at times to simply trudge onward when it felt as if I should just give it up! So thank you all of you for your kind words and thoughts - they have been the means by which I have achieved this journey. I look forward to seeing some of you on my return and others as and when time permits!

Until then, take care!

Scott
