I lined my back pack beside three other packs outside a woodworker’s shop. Suddenly there was a loud commotion as one pilgrim was stopping a thief from making off with two of the packs. His plans gone a rye the thief jumped into a waiting green Lagoona and sped away.
At the next hamlet we came upon the police were interviewing a person who just had her money bag and passport stoked. Our incident was shared…Evil persons haunt pilgrim’s Shangrila.
Had he gone to church, perhaps the thief would have chosen a different profession.
You were very fortunate today that your pack wasn’t stolen. I was just thinking today how safe the walk has been for you. Good to be reminded to be aware of your surroundings. Take care

I’ve been dreading reading this post, but glad to hear that you weren’t the victim once I finally did. My thoughts are with the other person, though.

We were fortunate with this “live and learn” lesson. Linda
