Finisterre - Finish and homeward bound

All things must pass. This Camino is coming to an end. Finisterre has been an opportunity to unwind and think back. 
Yes I did spend time at the beach - reading THE medieval travel guide on the Camino, informative and orthodox, and very weird in parts.
Other times were spent writing. I am happy with what I have done. I am looking forward to more recording and refining on my return home. 
Mar de Fóra beach is an extraordinary place- naturally scenic and even mystical, especially at sunset.
And now for something completely different! The Finisterre Pirate Festival.
Hordes of locals gathered the other night to celebrate Finisterre’s pirate past. I could just imagine this place being a haven for pirates - Ahhh!
Two pirate ships ‘motored’ in and did all sorts of pirate stuff like rescuing castaways, frightening the locals…

Burying treasure.. .
A couple of poor sods were abducted and made to walk the plank - while punters looked on and cheered. 
Lots of locals, young and old, celebrated by dressing up.
Next day I spied the pirate ships abandoned in the boat harbour around the corner.
Morning light in the harbour is serene.
I felt like I was the only person in the village.

A highlight was the evening cruise to watch the Sun disappear below the ocean at the edge of the world.
Bagpipes played as we rounded Cape Finisterre. The view from the ocean TO the lighthouse gave a different perspective.
As we cruised towards the setting sun.
Then it was gone!
The boat turned for home, and cruised toward the twinkling village lights.
I leave Finisterre with many fond memories.
Of the place, the people and playing music.

It is time to leave. . .
It has been a Buen Camino!
