Thanks, George, and anyone else who responds. BethHi Beth,
I would take a pair of light trainers if your pack weight allows, as its very nice to have a change of footwear for off trail times.
As to flipflops yes I think they are essential to avoid all sorts of nasties on shower floors. It may be possible to combine both functions Crocs? never tried them myself!
Regards
George
Me too. Although there are some really comfy, lightweight closed-in shoes for "afterwalk", I desperately crave air and sunshine on my toes, so sandals also for me..I brought sandals.
I used them in town and in the albergues. I even wore them one day (yes, with socks) to walk the Camino when my toes demanded some fresh air and quasi-sunshine. The look was . . . awkward . . . but the comfort level was ahhhhhhh.
They were from Quechua. I didn't think they would last - they weren't designed for any kind of hiking and I bought them because they were cheap - but they did!
As with all the clothes I brought on the Camino, my sandals hold a sacred place in my closet "Hall of Fame."
