It snarled up traffic to a considerable extent earlier today on the back road from Guaza to Los Cristianos, but in the end all was well. A GES rescue helicopter had to be used as well as police and ambulances to rescue a 69-year-old Norwegian woman who hurt her leg while walking on Guaza mountain around 1.30 this afternoon. The injury, however, was only slight, despite the assistance needed, and after being immobilized on a stretcher and winched into a helicopter, she was transferred by ambulance to Hospitén Sur for treatment.

I can see it coming that they will ban the import of walking boots and forbid anybody to bring them through customs. Mind you, hurting yourself on Guaza mountain could mean that you were wearing flip-flops.  :rofl:

They will have to make the wearing of any kind of footware illegal, or at least taxable.

Can I assume that the German bloke was on a day off?  :cheesy:
