Finally, a pillow.

I adventured this morning to a spot I hadn't been yet called Wazzemes.  It's an area where there's a big square with an indoor market that sells fresh fish and seafood, fromage galore, cured meats and other specialties.  I'm going to return tomorrow morning because every Sunday morning there is a farmer's market in the square outside of the indoor market and it's supposed to be quite the experience. 

It was just a block down from the market, though, that I FINALLY found a pillow!!!  For the past two nights I've been sleeping on my towel folded up like a pillow. If there's one thing I've learned about stores in France, it is that - at least for the most part, unless you're in a big city and even then - there is no such thing as a one-stop-shop.  Grocery stores have a completely different setup in France than in the United States and more often than not you need to go to other specialty stores to get everything you need (if you're arriving for the first time, like me).  I stopped at the pharmacy to try to get shampoo, conditioner, and soap.  I figured they'd have it all with a wide selection like a Walgreen's or a store like it would at home.  The lady helping me continued to ask me what my maladies were when it came to my hair and skin.  I guess if you go to the pharmacy, you better be there with an issue or a prescription.  But I'm just happy now I have most everything I need and hopefully I can get a full night of sleep tonight!
