The famous Botafumeiro at the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela (Spain)
Information about the Botafumeiro:
The Botafumeiro is a famous thurible found in the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral. The name Botafumeiro means smoke expeller in Galician.
The Santiago de Compostela Botafumeiro is one of the largest censers in the world, weighing 80 kg and measuring 1,60 m in height.
The censer is pushed initially to start its motion. Eight red-robed so called tiraboleiros pull the ropes, producing increasingly large oscillations of the censer. The turible's swings almost reach the ceiling of the transept. The incensory can reach speeds of 68 km/h as it dispenses thick clouds of incense.
At the top of the swing, the Botafumeiro reaches heights of 21 meters. It swings in a 65 meter arc between the Azabachería and Praterias doorways at the ends of the transept.
Néhány szó a Botafumeiroról:
A Botafumeiro a Santiago de Compostela-i katedrális híres füstölője.
A legenda szerint régen a zarándokok mikor megérkeztek Compostela-ba egy éjszakát a templomban aludtak. Viszont egy 800 km-es hosszú út után a sok zarándoknak kellemetlen „szaga volt. Mivel mindenkit nem lehetett egyenként beparfümözni, ezért „központilag belengettek egy füstölőt.
Manapság vasárnaponként a déli mise alkalmával, ill. nagyobb ünnepeken lengetik be a füstölőt. A Botafumeiro a világ egyik legnagyobb tömjénezője, súlya 80 kg, magassága 1,60 méter.
A füstölőt meglökik, hogy mozgásba lendüljön, majd nyolc vörösruhás ún. tiraboleiro meghúzza a kötelet, lendületet adva ezzel a füstölőnek. A füstölő sebessége elérheti a 68 km/h-t, legnagyobb kilengési magassága pedig a 21 métert.
St. James Sepulcrum (Santiago el Mayor), Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, Spain, Europe
James, son of Zebedee was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus, and traditionally considered the first apostle to be martyred. He was a son of Zebedee and Salome, and brother of John the Apostle. He is also called James the Greater or James the Great to distinguish him from James, son of Alphaeus and James the brother of Jesus (James the Just). James the son of Zebedee is the patron saint of Spain, and as such is often identified as Santiago. Saint James is the patron saint of Spain and, according to legend, his remains are held in Santiago de Compostela in Galicia. (The name Santiago is the local Galician evolution of Vulgar Latin Sanctu Iacobu, Saint James.) The traditional pilgrimage to the grave of the saint, known as the Way of St. James, has been the most popular pilgrimage for Western European Catholics from the Early Middle Ages onwards, although its modern revival and popularity stems from Walter Starkie's 1957 book, The Road to Santiago. The Pilgrims of St. James. Some 237,886 pilgrims registered in 2014 as having completed the final 100 km walk (200 km by bicycle) to Santiago to qualify for a Compostela. When 25 July falls on a Sunday, it is a ″Jubilee″ year (an Año Santo Jubilar Compostelano or Año Santo Jacobeo) and a special east door is opened for entrance into Santiago Cathedral. Jubilee years fall every 5, 6, and 11 years. In the 2004 Jubilee year, 179,944 pilgrims received a Compostela. In 2010 the number had risen to 275,135. The feast day of St. James is celebrated on 25 July on the liturgical calendars of the Roman Catholic, Anglican, Lutheran and certain Protestant churches. He is commemorated on 30 April in the Orthodox Christian liturgical calendar (for those churches which follow the traditional Julian Calendar, 30 April currently falls on 13 May of the modern Gregorian Calendar). James' emblem was the scallop shell (or cockle shell), and pilgrims to his shrine often wore that symbol on their hats or clothes. The French for a scallop is coquille St. Jacques, which means cockle (or mollusk) of St. James. The German word for a scallop is Jakobsmuschel, which means mussel (or clam) of St. James; the Dutch word is Jacobsschelp, meaning shell of St. James. The military Order of Santiago, named after James, was founded in Spain in the 12th century to fight the Moors. Later, as in other orders of chivalry, the membership became a mark of honor. The English name James comes from Italian Giacomo, a variant of Giacobo derived from Iacobus (Jacob) in Latin, itself from the Greek Ἰάκωβος Iacobos. In French, Jacob is translated Jacques. In eastern Spain, Jacobus became Jacome or Jaime; in Catalonia, it became Jaume, in western Iberia it became Iago, from Hebrew יַעֲקֹב, which when prefixed with Sant became Santiago in Portugal and Galicia; Tiago is also spelled Diego in Spanish and Diogo in Portuguese, which is also the Spanish name of Saint Didacus of Alcalá.[citation needed] Alternatively, Santiago is the local Galician evolution of Vulgar Latin Sanctu Iacobu, Saint James.

Camino - Oslo in Norway to Santiago in Spain, 5039 km by unicycle - Jakobsweg Einrad
Rider: Hans Howald at age 70 May 3 - July 9, 2019
Music: Written & performed by my friend John Boyd
Pictures:
Pilgrimage on a unicycle from Oslo in Norway to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. The journey took 68 days where I peddaled 5039 km through 8 countries. The daily distance averaged 74 km.
The route uses mostly bike paths or low traffic roads as well as footpaths.
This pilgrimage was the best present ever for my seventieth birthday.
Lyrics Camino song:
I turn my back on the luxuries of life
I say goodbye to my beautiful wife
To be a pilgrim, if only I could
I make my way to Norwegian Wood
Through the fjord and the pine
See Gyltingen with her fishing line
Windjammer, no sense of becaaaaalmed
Cross the Sund and down to the water
Past the cottage you’d want for your daughter
43 reasons stay close to friends
Feel the love that a letter sends
Gustav is frying up fish
Down to the shoreline hut
Agnetha is waiting, she’s waiting for youooooooooo
Lean into life, lean to the trees
Let the Lido’s water please
Understand the fish of plastic
Trip the light fantastic
Under the blue skies down by the sea
This land is paradise
This land is paaaridise
Kirchner called and left his impression
Ate his spargels when they were in season
Past the rooster on his musical throne
Lifted up his destiny stone
Through the flatlands of ancient reed and thatch
But the waters are rising,
The waters are riiiiiising
Dodge the bullet of the big green truck
Never known to be ‘down on his luck’
Ride the dykes that hold back the waves
And turn our hearts and our minds to the brave
Beach huts hide us away but we can see
That the flowers are waving, the flowers are waaaaving
To see ourselves as others see us
Cross the bridge where they fought to free us
Through the graves that never learn
Feel the poppies blood red yearn
Rolling down the tracks of yester-year
The whistles are blowing,
The whistles are bloooowing
Head standing is the way that you feel
The world revolves like a spinning wheel
Horse and trap by the lapping water
Ride through the sand though I doubt that you ought’a
Tall pines welcome you in and you start to sing
Y viva Espania, Y viva Espaaania
Fellow travellers that you chance to meet
Take the waters when you feel the heat
Cast your shadow on the dawning day
‘Fields of gold’ along the way
See your brothers, can’t you hear them say
That the bells are ringing,
They’re ringing for yooooou,
Rise above the morning’s mist,
Under trees whose verdants kissed
Gathering ourselves, ‘La Bella’
T’ords the spires of Compostela
Pilgrims rest their souls amongst (beneath) the shade
Cos this is the end, the end of the begiiiiiiiiiinning

story time: my pilgrimage in Spain ⛰(Camino de Santiago de Compostela)
Here is a brief overview of some things that I wanted to share with you after finishing my pilgrimage in Spain, Saint James' Way, or Camino de Santiago de Compostela. I want to mention that I did not go into some more personal stories and details, things that I'd prefer to keep to myself and the more religious aspect of the pilgrimage as well. It was a very spontaneously filmed video, I decided on the spot to just talk to you about a few little aspects of how it went :) But this is by no means a very detailed, in depth storytelling of my experience. Just wanted to let you know that :) Thank you so much for your love and support, and your patience too!
Next time I will post a video, I'll be in Nepal, in Pokhara on lakeside Phewa.

Walking the camino from Porto To Santiago de Compostela
A ten day walk along the old pilgrim way, which I recorder in video and on my blog at: dartmoorman.blogspot.co.uk
Santiago de Compostela to Muxia
This is my three day walking journey from Santiago de Compostela to Muxia. I made this trip on the last week of February of 2016. The weather is not too cold. There’s some wind and rain, but also sunny days too. Expect to walk alone for most part of the way at this time of year. This is some good alone time to get your thoughts together, reflect, meditate, or just get away from all the noise and enjoy the countryside and seaside. This beautiful town has a hilltop where you can enjoy a spectacular 360 degree view, and catch a mesmerizing sunset by the sea.

THE NORTHEN ROUTE TO SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA, EL CAMINO DEL NORTE IN ASTURIAS (ESPAÑA - SPAIN)
The Northern coastal Route to Santiago as it passes through Asturias, was used by the first European pilgrims as it followed along a pre-existing route carved out by the local inhabitants thousands of years before especially between the European Coastal communities of the Atlantic Arc. From the dawn of the Jacobean era and due to the Moorish conflicts throughout Spain, this was the safest way to Santiago as only the Cantabric Coastline was free of the domination and attacks by the Moors. Afterwards, between the 12th-13th centuries, the Coastal Route was consolidated as the most popular maritime and overland way to arrive at Santiago.
The Coastal Route in Asturias passes through 23 Councils: Ribadedeva, Llanes, Ribadesella, Caravia, Colunga, Villaviciosa, Gijón, Carreño, Corvera, Avilés, Castrillón, Soto del Barco, Pravia, Muros de Nalón, Cudillero, Valdes, Navia, Coaña, El Franco, Tapia de Casariego, Castropol, Vegadeo y San Tirso de Abres.

Camino de Santiago Documentary Film - The Way
I did my Camino de Santiago Pilgrimage in April/May 2004. To be authentic, I walked the whole French Way; 34 days, 18 kg of gear, 764 km on foot. I lost 8 kg in weight!
What happened to Mark? Watch his latest film - a motorcycle pilgrimage around Australia
I had read a lot about the Camino being a spiritual experience, and I wanted to try and capture on film my own reactions as I walked the way.
I find watching the film a little difficult, I feel a little embarrassed at just how earnest and honest I was trying to be. But the reaction from viewers has been amazing. Still, all these years later, people contact me thanking me for documenting my journey.
I have a little facebook page for the film. Despite not really doing anything with this page, it just keeps getting bigger and bigger, reaching close to 1,000 people.
So I've decided to release the whole film, in it's entirety on youtube. I will have ads running in the video and encourage you to explore these ads, any income for a independent filmmaker is handy, and will help me continue my current journey of trying to film the whole world.
Feel free to share, comment and like the video. I'm always happy to hear how my little film helped encourage people to do the Camino themselves. It is an amazing journey, a one of a kind experience.
Hice mi Camino de Santiago en abril / mayo de 2004. Ser auténtico , caminé todo el Camino Francés , 34 días , 18 kg de artes de pesca, 764 kilometros a pie. He perdido 8 kg de peso !
Había leído mucho sobre el Camino es una experiencia espiritual, y yo quería tratar de capturar en la película de mis propias reacciones mientras caminaba el camino.
Me parece ver la película un poco difícil , me siento un poco de vergüenza al ver lo serio y honesto, estaba tratando de ser . Pero la reacción de los espectadores ha sido increíble. Aún así, después de tantos años , personas en contacto conmigo dándome las gracias por documentar mi viaje.
Tengo una página de facebook poco para la película. ... A pesar de no haciendo nada con esta página, se pone cada vez más y más grande , llegando a cerca de 1.000 personas.
Así que he decidido a liberar toda la película , en él es totalidad en youtube. Voy a tener anuncios que se publican en el video y le animamos a explorar estos anuncios, cualquier ingreso para un cineasta independiente es útil , y me ayudará a continuar mi viaje actual de tratar de filmar todo el mundo .
Siéntase libre para compartir , comentar y como el video. Siempre estoy feliz de escuchar cómo mi pequeña película ayudó a la gente a hacer el Camino a sí mismos. Es un viaje increíble, una parte de una experiencia única.
