In previous visits to Cuenca I have been fascinated by the fact that it is very common for young ladies to wear spike heels. Watching them walk on the sidewalks is always interesting. I am amazed that they can walk, but I have also seen ladies running in their heels and not fall. I don’t think I have ever seen someone “bite the dust”. This year I have noticed a change in footwear. More, and more, young ladies are wearing what I would call “sensible shoes” with little or no heel. Perhaps safety, and comfort, is winning out over fashion.
