Celebrating St. James – Santiago Festival 2014

It has been an incredible Camino year as we mark the celebration of St. James in Santiago de Compostela 2014.  A year of new beginnings, continued Camino travels, new friendship and Discovering more of GALICIA.  I would like to thank all those that made this year so very special on my continued Camino Travels.  A very special thank you to Julio Castro, Director Parador Hostal Dos Reis Católicos, as we celebrated 4 years of Camiino Connections that began in 2010 during Xacobeo and the SYNCHRONISTIC meeting of Paulo Coelho and his introduction to you for our Camino Celebration beginnings. An incredible journey that continues to unfold – I am forever grateful as we all share in our love of the Camino.

Spending time in Santiago is always special and it was my pleasure to share in the St. James Festival again with friends.  Thank you to Lucie and Kaj Christensen of Cabo Do Mundo Casa Rural – Ribeira Sacra for joining me in Santiago, Cándido Pazos López, Fe Castro Gonzalez – Vanesa of O Mundo Das Telas y Ruth De La Torre for helping me with a wonderful dress design – who would have thought that 15 minutes with some beautiful fabric and 7 hours later you would have helped to create a great dress to wear and enjoy on this special occasion – Thank you for your creative design support and fast work – It was fun and made me feel so very special 🙂

To Julio Castro – Director Parador – and the whole Parador Staff  for including us in all the Parador Festivities – you are an incredible team that makes experiencing Santiago de Compostela so very special – personal and you have made me feel like one of your family! Muchisimas Gracias – Bo Camiño!!!

Muchas Gracias to Santiago Pintos Capeans for your incredible harp music that is the introduction to the video and your wonderful picture capturing the Scallop Shell of St. James on the Cathedral – magical just like your music – Harpas Maxicas – Corazon Atlantico – perfect as I have crossed the Atlantic to DESCUBRE GALICIA 🙂

Remembering in prayer – In Memoriam – condolences and continued angel prayers to the families and friends of the victims of the train tragedy 2013 – Our hearts and healing thoughts will always be with you.
