Ribadesella to Santander

Wednesday 19th:
Today we have to go back to Santander to catch the ferry home.
Breakfast and bocadillos again ('same as usual?' said the bar-tender), then to the FEVE for the last time. There were 3 Australians and a New Zealander also waiting for the train. They had been walking together, although not as pilgrims.
There was an itinerent on the train who was happy to chat. When he got off he shook Terry's hand and kissed mine!!
So into Santander with a little time to look around before tomorrow's ferry. We visited the Cathedral and its crypt. Then we took the local bus to the Sardineros and El Camello beaches, where Valerie went for a paddle.
