The end of our journey - a special day in Finisterre.

Dandy and Julia had stayed at a wonderful boutique hotel in Finisterre when they were here in 2015 and highly recommended we try it.   Hotel Da Natureza Maria Ardora would be our home for our last night in Finisterre.  Chris had already spent the prior night there so he picked us up after breakfast and we checked in about 11:00.  The hotel only has 6 rooms, all with a view of the Ocean and the owner and staff go over board to provide superb service.   We enjoyed the pool and jaquzzi and Chris and I had a massage.  Later we checked out the beautiful beach a short distance away.  Felt like we had landed on a Caribbean Island.  We invited Laura and Linda - Pilgrim friends from Bethesda, MD, to join us and had an extended happy hour.   At 8:00 that evening the owner used fresh ingredients from her garden to make some lovely tapas and serve some local Spanish wine.  After tapas we headed to the beach for sunset and a few of us had to dive into the Atlantic.  Cool but refreshing.   A PERFECT last day of pampering, friendship, laughter and sharing God's amazing beauty.
