Another Church on the way to Somo



Approaching Somo where a ferry can be taken to Santander

First glimpse of Santander. The ferry can just be seen on its return journey

The beach at Somo. Up the beach in the centre of the picture you can make out the landing where the ferry left for Santander

The ferry also calls at Pedrena en route

The camino signs direct the pilgrim straight to the Cathedral
