The French Camino has tested our footing for a good part of the 300 or so miles so far. It seems the steeper the descent, the rockier it gets. Sue’s photo from today shows our path, which was nowhere near as steep and rocky as some sections, but one misstep could still have been an ankle buster. It is all part of the adventure!
Books and my backpack 
Hi Rex! A couple of Albuquerque pilgrims just sent a similar photo of a rocky descent on the Le Puy route — heading to Conques — in case you see them. It’s funny, but I walked this in 2010, and I don’t remember those rocky descents (and those are usually my least favorite parts of a trek, other than toiling endlessly uphill on a shadeless road in hot afternoon sun). It must have been that I was 13 years younger and a few pounds lighter then. Be careful!

Hello Linnea,
It is just as well you don’t remember the rocky descents; they aren’t much fun! We are well past Conques, so are unlikely to see your friends.
Best wishes,
Reg
