Sundays

Difference #3. Everything is closed on Sunday. You cannot buy groceries, toilet paper, tylenol, or paint. We have heard rumor that there is a gas station about half an hour away that is always open, but you get the picture.
In one respect, it is refreshing to be somewhere where Sunday is different from every other day. You have to plan for Sundays, and plan to relax, because there is nothing else to do. Except walk (see previous post). Other times, it is frustrating- like when I misjudge how empty the milk container is. Or you decide at 5 PM you want to make pizza for dinner.

By your list of things you can't buy on Sundays, I'd say you speak from personal experience. Do I detect possible unfortunate situations in your past?

We have definitely run out of milk, bread, food in general, and TP. That was the worst. We had to beg some from someone else!
