[QUOTE="Albertagirl, post: 1204325, member: 43403"] I had to explain myself to the Guardia Civil recently when two of them came to the albergue where I was spending the night and inquired at length about an incident which had happened to me earlier in the day. I had been walking along what I thought was a pilgrim route (a walkable path a few metres from a nearby road). The path ended at a steep ditch. I did not want to retrace my route and chose to try to find a place to cross the water-filled ditch. This proved to be much more difficult than I had anticipated, as the opposite side of the ditch was steep and slippery to climb. Finally I crawled out of the ditch, totally soaked, and continued my walk along the road. Eventually, a driver stopped and offered to drive me to town, where he dropped me off at the albergue. Soon after, two members of the Guardia Civil appeared at my albergue and questioned me at length about what had happened. They never indicated what they had heard or why they held some suspicion about my situation. Eventually, they gave up and left. I have never asked for a ride, except in taxis, but I consider that my situation warranted accepting the kindness of a stranger. [/QUOTE]
