In my younger years I sailed Ok Dinghies. Some of my friends went to Sweden for International OK races, although I didn't, so I didn't get to meet Swedish people then. I stopped sailing when I fell off my bike after lunch, dislocated my shoulder and then had children.
Now much later I have met 2 Swedish women, veteran Camino walkers. Karin is temporarily disabled with tendinitis of the knee, and not walking. Marit is an EFI kind of girl, still walking but missing her travel companion who must now take the bus. Rebekka from Germany near Frieberg is on the left- she is also disabled and has gone home.
The Camino can takes its toll. Back in Merida in the Albergue it was like an emergency ward. Infected blisters, tendinitis of ankles and knees, various strapping. More recently, big toe problems, and shoulders.
