TRAVELLING WITH ADRIENNE
Lady Luck is Looking After Me
I tap-tap-tapped 2 kilometres to the above shop to try to replace the rubber bung on my hiking stick. I lost it on the Love Lock Bridge in Bydgoszcz a few days ago. Story here.
The urgency of replacing it became clear last night when my pointed stick became trapped between the cobblestones on my way to dinner. I managed to avoid falling. My balance must have improved with walking every day.
I googled Outdoor Hiking Gear last night. I saw the Mountain Shop I was looking for and my hopes of finding what I needed were slim. It’s a hole-in-the-wall shop underneath the railway line. Nevertheless, I ventured in and tentatively showed my stick.
Would you believe they had just what I wanted? 19.99 pln for a pair! I now have a spare if I ever walk over a Love Lock Bridge again! I am lucky!
