Every neighborhood has at least one of these handy-dandy hardware-housewares-miscellaneous-stuff stores. You can't buy food here (at least as far as I could tell), but pretty much everything else! This is the one by my apartment. I kid you not - I saw dishes, pots & pans, batteries, silverware, pet carriers and supplies, flashlights, carpeting, oilcloth, tin boxes, kitchen gadgets, shopping carts, shopping bags, toys, firewood, film, glassware, vacuum cleaners, paint, dropcloths, paint brushes, furniture polish, twine, hammers, wrenches, screws, nails, shower curtains, blinds, baskets, casseroles, teakettles, ladders, napkins, mops, alarm clocks, .... I could go on and on, but you get the point. If you're here on a rainy day, don't despair! Just drop into your local "droguerie" and browse for a couple hours! Then go across the street for a beer.
