To the end of the earth ...

Adjusting the rhythm a little ... not so much walking here ... folks celebrating their Caminos ... headphones with Ohm Mani Padme Hung mask the noise ... rising later, after porridge, a pack free walk up the mountain on the, ancient unmarked path ... the cape tapering towards the lighthouse down the zigzag made road ... symbols of journey's end ... burnt clothing, a lone boot ... a sticker suggesting Jerusalem shows the pilgrimage never ends ... the destination shared by the three Abrahamic, monotheistic faiths ... Jehovah, God, Allah ... their prophets, Moses, Jesus, Mohammed ... their followers living in this powerful place in peace and harmony ... one day in a parallel universe perhaps ... meanwhile, Islam has its own pilgrimage, Mecca ... unbelievers not permitted ... though some confusion here what the belief is, since an all powerful separate divine entity appears a commonality ...

Warm and sunny at the bar by the lighthouse ... the sun over Portugal ... reflecting on the twin poles pulling my heart ... England, particularly Stanhope, children, friends in touch today ... Portugal, project wanting to manifest in the marginal lands. .. anyway, winter encourages southward for now ... and whilst walking is preferred, faster modes are available ...

Michele makes lunch ... pasta with a spicy sauce, salad ... this evening the sunset and rising super moon ... leaving soon, since the daylight is shorter again ... clear skies ... pics maybe not so great with the trusty Tab camera ...

Meanwhile, as promised, here's the beautiful Fatima ... some seascapes and some watercolours by the very talented Joan ...
