      That's your issue right there... They're made of wood! In future, buy socks made of a soft wood like pine or spruce.

      Get yourself to the nearest Centro de Salud and get those properly assessed and dressed. After that I would suggest throwing your current footwear in the nearest recycling bin. If they’ve done that to your feet in four days they don’t fit or...

      EricJR reacted to David's post in the thread Alternatives to walking if injured with Like Like.
      Well that is pretty sad - sorry to hear that. I had to come home early last month as my old knee trauma flared badly again - can't do it any more so that was my last walking Camino (will return to do first aid with my car in future). All depends...

      Burgos is a great place to start! Lovely city. I can only get ~2 weeks at a time, and I've done Leon-Santiago (mostly) and Burgos-Leon (then on to Villafranca). I'm repeating Leon-Santiago starting Friday. Don't worry about missing the Pyrenees...

      Is a +1500% ( €0.2966*0.195kW*1h = €0.06 - average pricing oct 2022) markup not a fair compensation for a one hour lunchtime top up? Very few products in a hotel/restaurant business - or in any business get that type of margin. Even at €1/kWh...

      EricJR reacted to Rita Flower's post in the thread Name of Dog at Oseira? with Like Like.
      Yes it seems that he ( he seemed like a boy but maybe not) had appointed himself (or herself) as the pilgrim guide out of Oseira. He/ she walked with us in the dark up that first very steep and rocky section. When we got to the road he / she...

      EricJR reacted to 3ball's post in the thread The Camino for LGBTQ with Like Like.
      The same "you will never know" applies in all directions. If person #1 cannot know the person #2's experience, the opposite must also be true.
