After busting up my knee I stupidly continued; I did so because I met some really cool people and wanted to hang out with them at a mythical albergue in Guames. It was so popular around 50 people had arrived by lunch time. I had three weeks to reach Santiago de Compostela, I needed to push through covering an average of 21km a day.
Leaving your hiking pole at the door you just think, I have to find that in the morning.
