After Tahiche, I drove down to Deiland shopping centre again to buy some food and gifts at the supermarket. It was also partly to get a €200 note broken up. I hated this large note, which was difficult to spend.
There was a long queue at the checkout, probably due to shoppers stocking up for the weekend. I got very upset when the cashier closed the lane while I was still in the queue. The polite protocol is to stop accepting additions to the queue, then close it when the last customer has been served. Scatterbrain! But at least I had no problem getting change for the large note.
I had been seeing Volveremos a Europa (We will return to Europe) posters all over. This referred to public anger over support for the US in Iraq contrary to the wishes of the majority of the population and the defeat of the Spanish PP at the elections following the Madrid bombings.
