Things We Lost on the Camino

- 1 boot, 3 pilgrim's credentials, 1 passport (each later recovered)
- 1 pair of XL men's flip flops
- 1 sports bra
- all sense of shame
- 1 comb
- 5 towels
- taking for granted showers and beds and full-size napkins and machine-washed clothes and toilet paper
- 1 bottle of lotion
- 3 bottles of shampoo
- 4 bottles of conditioner
- 5 bars of soap
- good hygienic practices
- 1 pilgrim's shell (stolen)
- 2 pairs underwear
- privacy
- 1 glasses lens
- 1 bottle of sunscreen
- 2 hats
- 4 hiking poles
- any apathy toward the amazing capacity of our bodies
- 2 bandanas (both mine)
- if only by a single pebble, the stony imperviousness of the walls barricading our hearts
