Aging inevitably happens.People do strange things.
Well, would YOU? I mean, footwear is a recurring note in your threads!!! If that is you in the light blue fleece top, and the lovely smile, buen camino!!!I'm currently walking the Camino Frances. Over the last week or so we've been followed by a lady wearing these shoes... indeed this photo was taken in Las Herrerias.
We understand that walking the camino in these shoes is a kind of marketing exercise? But we have no other information... but thought I'd share the photo anyway
Ps I rode one of Victor's horses this time... just glorious

I tried to download a picture of Alexandra but I could not. I met her this afternoon coming into Pallas de Rei. I had heard about her. I took the time to talk to her to find out her story. She is very open to sharing. So I am a little dismayed about the jokes. She is very sincere about her advocacy of helping single mothers who may be struggling with mental health issues. She wants to bring attention to this as she suffered issues as a single mother.I'm currently walking the Camino Frances.

We’re in Palas de Rei today, and I’ve seen her several times over the last few days, including a few hours ago on the way in to town. Someone told me she is advertising these shoes as “so comfortable you can walk the Camino wearing them.” I hear she is carrying 4-5 pair that are for sale.
On another note, my wife also rode the horse (Mavi) from Las Herrerias to O Cebreiro, and loved it. Unfortunately, by the time I inquired, Victor only had one horse left, so I walked to OC. It really wasn’t a bad walk, even though much of it was uphill. I quite enjoyed it. I suppose I’ve gotten my Camino legs without even realizing it.
I like the socks....the high heels would be a challenge....love the ponyI'm currently walking the Camino Frances. Over the last week or so we've been followed by a lady wearing these shoes... indeed this photo was taken in Las Herrerias.

Thanks Ede. I read about Alexandra and she sounds like an awesome woman. You can’t tell a book by its cover.I tried to download a picture of Alexandra but I could not. I met her this afternoon coming into Pallas de Rei. I had heard about her. I took the time to talk to her to find out her story. She is very open to sharing. So I am a little dismayed about the jokes. She is very sincere about her advocacy of helping single mothers who may be struggling with mental health issues. She wants to bring attention to this as she suffered issues as a single mother.
Please if you see her say hello from Edie. She was on her way to Melide. I hope to see her again on the Way to Santiago.
So glad you took the time to hear wish other people could do the same...I will stay withflatsI tried to download a picture of Alexandra but I could not.

Why gossip about a lady when you can ask her directly?
The shoes with heels remind me of a dear friend of mine. She used to wear high heels all the time, and her feet were unable to adjust to flat shoes. So she had Wellingtons with high heels on the inside, long before the so-called wedges came into fashion.
Perhaps this is the case here, perhaps not, so let us know once you have asked.
-- Aha, I see that @Ede Hale did just that. Good for you!
Haha... no but it looks a little like I am. I think the saddle and my trousers are the same colourAre you sitting side-saddle on that horse? If so, kudos on the sheer core strength that would take for balancing.
