    Katykay reacted to Rita Flower's post in the thread Camino Frances Social Dynamics with Like Like.
    Interesting thread. In 2007 on the CF I walked with groups and walked alone. I did hear that dreadful word bed race for the early risers - but there was no concept of a 'Camino Family'. I tended to (and still do) ask to join up with others...
