Hi!
While grocery shopping in a large supermarket the other day I was reminded of the camino in a very subtle way. The aisles of the store were marked as one way due to social distancing requirements.
While I had no problems following the arrows most everyone else just ignored them. In fact I found myself looking for the arrows on my way back to the car in the parking lot.
I just had to go back into the store and take a picture. If only they were yellow!
Buen Camino
