I lost the following items while walking the Camino this March and April:
One Cabela's XPG RGB II head lamp. I accidentally left this at the albergue in Carrión de los Condes. By the time I realized I had forgotten it, it was too late to go back. This is a very nice head light and I suspect the only one like it in all of Spain. It could give out 4 different colors of lights and various intensities. It also has a strobe function. I would like this returned. If you happened to pick it up, please send me a private message.
2 Wool Wigwam socks and 1 sock liner. I brought 4 pairs of socks, 2 gray and black and 2 brown. I lost one black sock and one white sock, so I had one mis-matched pair. I also lost one white sock liner. These you may keep.
1 3 euro cent coin. Now, people tell me I'm crazy and that no such coin exists. But I know I had one. I received it at the airport in Paris. I remember it because there's an old saying, "Queerer than a 3 dollar bill." This is not a slur against gay people, it comes from a time when queer meant strange. Anyway, I wanted to post a picture of it on facebook, but I forgot about it for a couple of days and couldn't find it. During a conversation about the Euro, I brought up the 3 euro cent coin and everyone just said that I was insane. If you found this, you may keep it, but please send me a picture.
2 hours of sleep. I arrived in Europe on March 6th. Daylight savings began that Sunday, so I set my clock ahead and wondered why I was the only one up at 7 am. Later when I mentioned daylight savings to my friends, they again gave me that same crazy look as when I mentioned the 3 euro cent coin. So I set the clocks on my devices and watch back to normal time. However, a few weeks later, I was surprised to find myself being kicked out of an albergue at an unusually early hour. Apparently Spain does do daylight savings, they just did it 3 week later then the US. I feel as though these 2 hours of sleep were taken from me and I'd really like them back.
What about you? What did you lose?
