      Chris Gi reacted to naplesdon's post in the thread Hiking up O Cebreiro in the Rain with Haha Haha.
      I did it on horseback once in rain and sleet, it was not a pleasant way to do it but at least I got to the top about twice as fast as I could have walked it.

      We did it in rain and wind last October. Trail should be fine. You will get wet feet, but you will probably get that on the road too. Some parts provide shelter. Go steady, and even in the rain it is beautiful.

      We (my wife and I, 60 years old) hiked up to O Cebreiro from Las Herrerias under heavy cold rain and in the early morning darkness last October. We took the trail, and would do it again. It was muddy for sure, but at no point did we feel it was...

      Sixteen days before I get on a plane headed 19,100km north! I'm a little worried about all sorts of little things, and I'm sure "once I get there" my worries will evaporate. However, I'm glad I've done a little research. Knowing not to touch...

      Silly now, but I worried that people would think my feet were unattractive in my sandals since I don't wear nail polish on my toenails. I think I even made a post about. I try to remember that now when I respond to others and help them feel more...

      I think I had done so much research on this Forum and asked so many questions......... There was nothing left to worry about! All my doubts were resolved, questions answered. I think all the research paid off. Not sure that I over worried...

      Chris Gi reacted to Robo's post in the thread Even Better than store bought Hikers Wool with Haha Haha.
      I've been a fan of Hikers Wool since 2015 when I first used it on Camino. It's wonderful stuff. Providing a soft padding and natural oils on 'hot spots' as they occur, so that blisters can be avoided! I've been trialling a new version of Hikers...

      Not meeting on Camino but one year I met a young Texican couple. Good upbringing, good schools, perfect teeth, etc (oh, and they were really good, intelligent, positive, and nice people too). They had been childhood sweethearts .. did school...
