thank all those who supported us, thinking, reading and writing, interacting with this blog. It is not 'been easy for us along the way, it can be kept up to date with descriptions of the stages and the inclusion of photos, but we did, maybe delayed if not always in real time. A special thanks to the drafting of local Gazzettino that followed us with that, now that he had become a Sunday gathering to readers, writing the chronicle of our week of walking.

The Way of St. James is there, from 1200 years. He is waiting for you too. Courage in the shoulder and legs!

does not seem true. I started with a lot of will, but also with many doubts and fears of being unable to get to the bottom and are now at the center of the square dell'Obradorio, and the cathedral is in front of me, with its Baroque facade, its steeples, Its scales seem to cross each other. I realize that it's all true, and that after thirty days, 775 km of road, crossing the Pyrenees, the land of bread and wine of Rioja, the highlands of Burgos and Leon, Galicia and the green Mesetas the hours are right here in front of the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. The end (or beginning?) Of my journey.
not going to write another Blog of what I felt and heard today, is my personal page too that I could not knock in any way. Just inside of me I can find words that can describe the multitude of emotions that overwhelm me. It 's the most beautiful page, the one I wanted so much, is the page of my journey.
I still thank all those who have followed this adventure, blog and Gazzettino and who supported us in all these 35 days of walking.
thank in particular:
- Tony's friend with whom I shared every inch of this long march.
- my feet and my legs that brought me up here.
- my shoulders and my back who have supported the weight of the backpack (my home for 35 days).
- my hands and arms with the ticking of the rackets have eased the fatigue in the legs and shoulders.
- my mind that even in hard times has not succumbed to the temptation to drop everything.
- my wife Gianna that he held me and comforted each day (thanks ... Vodafone)
- and finally those who are above us all that protected me and guided to your destination.
I brought with me a thought for all those who have asked me and all people near and dear to me.

34 ^ 22 km stage: Ribadiso - St. Irene / Km19

06/27/2006 -20km to Santiago. tomorrow to prove it!
Everything goes well under a bright sun, the forests of eucalyptus. Galicia after several days of leaden sky, the sun gives us. Now we can not wait to get in front of the cathedral of Santiago, all the rest counts for little. The green Galicia with its enchanted forest, the thousand streams and pastures, slipping away, slowly, sottoi our boots. We stopped at St. Irene in a private hostel. It 'pretty soon is just past noon, but we decide to stop here to charge the batteries for the "Ruscha" at the end of tomorrow.

33 th stage: Palas de Rei - Ribadiso - 24 km

26/06/2006
today's stage shows equally busy as a landscape and location. The "horreos" (see photo), the typical silo-like capitals, used for storing corn, now we find them everywhere. The path is constant ups and downs of hills, through woods of oak, alternating with forests of eucalyptus, ruiscelletti of water fords and places to "Elves" are not lacking. Much to my delight, after that day I said to myself this is the right habitat for fungi, there appears to the side of the path a pair of fragrant porcini. The first thought was to make us a pasta in the evening, but the uncertainty about where we stayed, I did tend to leave them on the wall of the entrance to a house found after two kilometers. (.. A bit of "providence" for the locals!)
Ribadiso all'albergue Once in, the kind ospitalera Paula told us that it was already full, the proposed alternative was to sleep on the floor or move to a house private. Chose the second solution, we were taken by car outside route to a farm with 100 head of cattle; the house is pretty new and clean, with 28 € of Bagmati has a bedroom with very large and airy, with views over the surrounding countryside, including dinner and breakfast. In the evening the owner showed us his company, explaining the entire chain of production of milk of his cows: Hear, hear a liter of milk in Spain costs € 0.50 - 0.75, against € 1:10 to 1:30 (people meditate!)

It works and it is also produced to improve our social status, for career, to feel gratified, to show off their status symbol, no matter how someone might join him. The media, daily, direct our minds towards the redundant messages with more pounding and we do not realize the emptiness of these messages. The absorption, no longer react as the conditioning is complete.
only after at least 10 days of Spartan life, I realized how many things which until yesterday was essential, even today feel the need.
The world of "pilgrim" revolves around its own backpack, and the hostel, no cars, no television, no fancy clothes, no meetings of unnecessary work, no homes full of everything you've ever used and probably never will use. Only the essentials to live as humans and be accepted by others. (Read soap and clothes) and a lot of time to grasp the beautiful world around you: nature and people.
people with whom you can have a relationship not cold and quick, but deep and intense because the availability of time eliminates the tension and brings out the humanity in every one us.
recommend to those who have children to make the experience of the Camino de Santiago: a family if the children are small, if you already older, alone or in company of a few selected friends.
learn what it is really necessary and would know clearly distinguished from the surplus, while enjoying it and this is essential for me in this world where everything seems to be due.
