[QUOTE="Stephen Nicholls, post: 96089, member: 12404"] I took a month off in May to walk the VdlP starting in Salamanca. I had to give up after six days. I felt ashamed, that I had let down so many friends around the world who were supporting me in prayer. I gave up after day after day of rain, and feet so blistered I had to get medical help from an emergency aid centre. I was not the only one to go home - several others were thinking of it, and one dear French peregrina - limping worse than me - actually came with me, sharing taxi and bus to Santiago and thence home. On the bus we were driving through heavy rain, and could see the snow still on the mountain tops I was totally depressed and ashamed for two weeks. After all, last year I walked the Camino Portuguese with no problems. I feel better now, and hope you do, too, Toobizy. Then we saw on this forum the warning from the Spanish Rescue Services, who had had to go to the aid of twelve peregrinos in trouble on the mountains. Thank God it wasn't me - or you - up there. We did the right thing! Pension funds permitting I have started to think again of the Camino Ingles ... maybe in a couple of years time! God bless you, Toobizy! And Buen camino for your next walk. Stephen. [/QUOTE]
