Return to Santiago

Last night we packed ourselves a picnic, with a few things we had bought earlier on in the supermarket, and walked back out to the lighthouse point.

Finding ourselves agood vantage point we settled down on some rocks. From here ee watchdd thd sun gradually descend over the horizon. There were lots of other small groupings scattered all over the vliff edge doing the same. 

As we feasted on leftover pizza, olives, crisps and coconut macaroons we snapped away with our cameras as the sun set.

We were  little surprised that when the sun had gone down it didn't go completely dark. .. naive aren't we?  We'd even taken torches just in case.

This morning we afforded ourselves with a long lie in and didn't get up until 08:00, slthough Jane and I had been awake since six listening to the seagulls cawing loudly outside. 
Once we were ready we took a gentle stroll round to the bus-stop where we joined about another twenty pilgrims waiting for the bus back to Santiago.

At 09:30 the bus arrived and we jumped aboard for what we thought was going to be a three hour ride. In fact, it only took just over two hours, taking us round the beautiful coast for one last look as we left. 

We are now back in the same apartment of Fina's that we were in ladt week.  We dropped into Charlie's for a drink before lunch,  earlier,  then had a one course light lunch in the only veggie place in Santiago. 

This evening we will return to Charlie's for the obligatory G&T before going back to the veggie restaurant for dinner.

I'm not sure how much sleep we are going to have tonight as the barrio we are in is the barrio of Saint Peter and it is busy celebrating its saints day with mucho gusto.
