Now that we have taken a day and a half off, our average of 15 miles per day has shrunk to a little over 12 a day. It was unavoidable. We we’re both physically tired and the sole of my right foot felt like it was tearing with every step. We shopped around at local pharmacies for more mole skin. Doug also needed deoderant and 2 different places showed him the same product so he bought it. He brought it back to our hotel and used Google translate to scan the Mandarin text that was inside the packaging. It turns out that the product was designed for amputees to use on the part of their skin that comes into contact with their prosthesis. He couldn’t find moleskin but he did buy this for me. The packaging has me feeling very optimistic.
This is Cherry, she works at Walmart and helped Doug with his shopping. She’s the best!! Thanks Cherry!
Does that mean they don’t use deodorant then??
We finally found deoderant and neither of us have noticed anybody with b.O. and people here work hard! I think that maybe they actually do use that stuff formulated for amputees. The thing Doug (and I ) didn’t like about it is that there is a chemical reaction that takes place that converts it into formaldehyde. Yuck!
