    Fear of heights (don't laugh- It's real!)

    Holy Hell!

    Luckily no.. some trees broke my fall! It didn't help at all (in curing me) it just proved how strong my desire to reach the ground is!

    Thank you again for your help! Maybe we will meet like two shivering fools on the way!!

    Oh.. You're right, I think it may be the bridge I cannot walk across. Fear is one thing, but flinging myself off is another (see cable car incident above). This will be my first camino and I feel a bit guilty using a car to cross.. is that mad?

    Weirdly, I don't mind rollercoasters (they're not an everyday thing though). Sometimes you just have to trust your fear...

    That is a treat I will be sure to swerve!

    As someone who took their mother on the london Eye ( a giant ferris wheel) with a t-shirt wrapped around her eyes... I am sure I will find a solution! Thank you!!

    When I look at the photos, there seems to be a high bridge and a low one- please tell me the low one is the pedestrian crossing! Thank you so much for your help!

    Thanks Rick! Many are the times I have blindfolded myself and run across a bridge- sadly now I'm not sure how fast I could run.. and I have also (literally) crawled across a bridge in Seville (it's not even very high!). I guess I will see when I get there what my options are.

    Thanks so much!! I have jumped out of a cable car at 4 metres high- so I know my limits. It seems to be getting worse as I get older. Is it possible to hitchhike over? (I dont know what its called when you have the desire to throw yourself off!) I'm fine on slopes.. just bridges and sheer drop!!

    Fear of heights (don't laugh- It's real!)

    Hello! I am lucky enough to live in Spain, and have just over a week to do something for my soul! However, I have terrible vertigo ( I once hugged a pylon up the Eiffel Tower for an hour). Is there anywhere I should worry about from Sarria to Compostela? Thanks guys!!
