The End

Vandi and I attended the Pilgrim's Mass at the Cathedral in Santiago.  It is known for swinging a huge botafumeiro (incense burner) at the end of the mass.  This botafumeiro has been used since the Middle Ages as an instrument of purification in a crowded cathedral....translated to mean "to mask the smell of the pilgrims"!  Quite something to see!

    You made it! How awesome is that? Congrats on making it to the end. )The incense reminds me of the Grace Cathedral in San Francisco.)
