I love hardware stores...

It's not the first time i'm jumping here and there in Milan to find the very last piece to fix a motorbike. And it's always quite funny in this period. Everyone is fighting to buy the last minute present, or book the last minute flight to somewhere, while u are running from one hardware store to another in search of a puncture repair kit, or some elastic bands to fix your luggage (that still has to be packed up, by the way....) or that particular screwdriver u really miss...

Only good news today. My passport was waiting for me in TNT traco shop downtown, they did not bill the shipping, i got almost everything we need (that i'm not sure to find in Marocco).

I was really surprised about the anti malaric pills: 53 euros for 12 pieces. LSD trips are cheaper and have less contraindications. Anyway, we need them. And it's quite impossible to get discounts in pharmacies.

And what about it's name: Malarone. That is to say: Malar One. But that way in italian it's so funny...And it's almost like the way we sometimes call condoms: goldone. Coming from Gold One, the first brand of condoms brought here by US soldiers during WW2.

Now just doing the last washing up, using all the heating sources (radiators, hairdryers, oven, microwave....) to dry all the needed t shirts, socks and underwear....
