• A messed up ankle, the end of walking?

    7. mai 2021, Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Last night I was awake all night with intensive pain in my ankles which have swollen up to such an extent that I can no longer walk. The day yesterday was simply too much!
    It became clear that this was the end of my walking, at least for a while.
    For me to admit this is extremely difficult but my body is simply saying NO !
    However I want to continue, so I have decided to try and reant a bicycle all morning, without success. so I have decided to buy one and set off by taxi to Decathlon in Leira.
    As I sat in the taxi, I was very sad with a deep feeling of having failed. It is not me to give up.
    I have now bought a bike with bags for under 200 euros and will now cycle back to the Camino and continue my route.
    A new camino waits.
    "Bon Camino!"
