Another HOT day 8-12-15

Today it was HOT again, we started the day out with shopping as we were getting down to a bare refrigerator again.   Getting out early has it's advantages because one can walk to the markets and not arrive in a sweaty mess.  We stopped at our cheese vendor first because they will be closing for 10 days beginning the 15th and stocked up.   Then it was over to the fruit and vegetable shop to get topped up there, don't know if they will close or not as there is no sign that we've seen.  We wanted fish but our fish vendor is  closed until the 21st so no joy. However, next door to the fish shop is a boulangerie that placed 3rd in the annual Paris wide baking
competition for baguettes in 2013, not as close as our regular shop but great breads and pastries.

Back home for lunch and trying to stay cool in heat.  I had an acupuncture appointment today and decided to go a bit early so that I could cool off beforehand but no such luck.  The park I stopped at was sweltering and almost no breeze so I went in to a market to the freezer section and got cooled down a bit.  A couple minute walk to the acupuncturist had me sweating again and that's how I showed up.   The elevator is so small that my shoulders touch both walls and it's about 4 feet deep, fitting into the well created by the winding staircase.
So I sweated on her table for an hour and then went and sat in the park again with a little better result this time.   Taking the bus home was the same story hot, hot, hot with the same sweaty outcome.
