Second 100 miles (May 2017)
Six of us have just returned from an amazing two weeks walking our second 100-mile stretch of the Camino Frances. The weather was amazing, the scenery breathtaking, the company stimulating and the hospitality outstanding. When one of our party slipped on a wet floor and gashed his head everyone was incredibly kind and helpful. However, we had one issue that caused distress for my friend, Caroline. We were a little later leaving an albergue than most of the other guests one morning. Caroline could not find her shoes - the shoes that she had spent weeks selecting with insoles to support her misshapen feet (from previous surgery). There was no option but to take the very worn pair that were left on the shelf and then buy a new pair in the next city. Obviously, she had no time to wear the new ones in and she finished our walk in a great deal of pain as a result. We would like to believe that her lovely shoes were taken by mistake, so can I ask you to check your shoes / boots carefully before you leave and not let this happen to anyone else.
