"Good way, girls! See you in Santiago of Compostela! "- Said the lady, smiling and saying goodbye with her hands.
"Good way!" - They said.
Isadora and Fernanda was left the road and continued peaceful, yet not forgetting the goal, and that they needed arrive in Santiago on that same day. They went A Rúa, crossed Labacolla city, always appreciating the beautiful landscapes. They wanted to protect in her mind each minute of the last day of pilgrimage. The sun was setting when they arrived at Mount of Gozo. They looked at the horizon and finally, saw the Cathedral of Santiago.
"We have arrived! Let's ask how much time remains until the cathedral. "- Fernanda said, stopped a man who was on the other side of the street.
