One thing I noticed years ago on the Francés was, due to inexperience I suppose, my shadow would take off like a bat out of hell first thing in the morning as if it were a race then later in the day would be lagging behind me all tuckered out. Since then walking the Portugués and the Inglés it seems more content to walk along beside me on one side or the other. With age comes wisdom.

Love all your pics! Mine is in my avatar 😁

Oh, there’s one from Pontremoli, on the VF A2251758-0F96-447F-945E-3FBA55EC1799.jpeg
It was very funny, only two of us staying in the castle and the last tourists to be let in were puzzled when they saw our washing. We could hear them ‘I think it must be a sect living here’. 😂

Start a #caminoshadow hashing and Instagram it... I think about a similar idea but with clouds -dramatic Camino cloud shots.
I got this idea from a different thread, and thought it would be fun to see a variety of photos of our own shadows from the camino... You know we all do it!

Not sure if I captured how "Abbey Road" we looked to me crossing this bridge, but it was a cool hiking moment. Shadowed are women from France, Canada, Australia, and the US.
I was thinking the same thing when i saw the photo!
