On our final day, we started at the Santiago market where the highlight again was fish and cheese made in the shape of a female breast. When we finished, we drove out to Finisterra - the end of the earth. This is the furthest point west in Spain and while there is a point in Portugal that is further west, this was the spot that the pagan and the early Christian's considered the end of the earth. We hiked up among the gorse and the heather to the wobbling rocks - legendary in pagan times. Looking out to the Atlantic, we would be looking at NYC, if we could see across the ocean. We walked over to the lighthouse and kilometer zero in the Camino.
