Strangest Thing on Your Camino?

[Peterexpatkiwi]

THAT is original! Loads of us appear to have seen dinosaurs, hanging dolls, there are variations of the shoe 'trail' all over the world, even a couple of you have seen pig's out on their morning constitutional - but an unfriendly Canandian?!?

Probably just re-enacting that movie.

Is this art or madness?

It is wonderful. I think it qualifies as "Outsider Art." Where is it?

The harvest of Tobacco in the valley of Valcarce and the harvested Cauliflower (that I love and didn't expected there) in La Faba!

It was shortly after Novellana on the del Norte.

Kaz, I think they are Tazmanian devils. I thought you'd be the first to identify them for me.
Wouldn't you like to stay at Camp Bajo?

Nope...not seeing any resemblance to our beautiful & unique little devils there!
As for staying at the camp... I'd be concerned about a repeat of a very famous shower scene...

That guy is a real cutie for sure.

That guy is a real cutie for sure.

To be fair, they do do a lot of this too...accompanied by blood curdling screeching.
Maybe they belong at the camp afterall...

Ah-ha! So I wasn't totally out in left field after all.

This guy is the only Taz devil I'd ever seen before...he gave them all a bad rap in the US.

A few more whismical or silly yard art from the last few days on the Norte.

 

[Camino Chrissy]

From the Norte yesterday... The Aladdin's lamp was huge!
The colorful knitted crochet squares were pretty, but I thought an odd choice to be outdoors.

 

[Camino Chrissy]

Yesterday on the Norte. I thought this wall art at a pre-school was cute and whimsical.

Today's strange whimsy on the Norte.

One strange thing I saw was a former Soviet army officer wearing torn up old running shoes while carrying his brand new hiking boots in his pack because he, "didn't want to get them dirty".

Well I'm similar to him, too. I wear a cheap ball cap on the Camino while my lovely, expensive Tilley hat I've owned for over a year sits on a shelf at home, worn three times because "I don't want to ruin it".

Presumably they'd stay even cleaner (and weigh less) were they left at home.

I saw this interesting "display" in a window today in Muxia.
