<DIV>Hello everyone,<BR><BR>And I thought it was just me not getting any
messages. The wierd part about<BR>it all, for me, was that the messages stopped
coming in on the day I started<BR>my walk from Sarria. I thought it was too
strange for words; when I returned<BR>home, there were a few unread messages,
accounting for the days it took us<BR>to travel from Australia to Madrid, then
another day getting to Lugo and on<BR>to Sarria.<BR><BR>I came home full of
comments I wanted to make on different aspects, and will<BR>do this under
separate subject headings to suit the archive. But first I<BR>will say thanks to
the online community for all the support and advice I<BR>gleaned over a
year or so of being part of this great group.<BR><BR>As brief background; I am
just over 50, and walked with a female friend over<BR>60. We were on the road
for a week in early May in what amounted to one of<BR>the most memorable
experiences of my life. Such friendliness and respect for<BR>everyone; the route
not overcrowded at that time, and only one day of rain.<BR>Also, no agressive
dogs anywhere on the route. We were very aware that<BR>locals kept their dogs
chained and in the yard during the day.<BR><BR>Regards,<BR><BR>Rebecca
