<BR>The explosive was the sort of firecracker that any kid may set off in his backyard on July 4th and it did not cause undue alarm.
<BR>Later on, about 6:00 p.m. a group of students and young people held a demonstration were the Praza Galicia meets the casco and they halter traffic for hours and hours. The protest ad to do with the fact that a small building on rua nova, erstwhile used for civic and student purposes was being sold for private use.
<BR>At twelve o'clock, midnight, there was a fantastic light and sounds gigantic spectacle on Obradoiro, with the pilgrim figure spewing fire was flying about and all of us in the square were periodically showered with on and on fireworks above our heads while magnificent Camino images were reflected on the Cathedral. It was glorious.
