The
Boutique
Things from the hôtel. Some useful. Some unnecessary. Most difficult to leave behind.
Your bag
A few things guests kept asking to take home. Reception eventually stopped saying no.
From the pool
Wet footprints, sunglasses, and an unfinished Paloma.
From Room 1414
Sleep mask. Playing cards. Slippers. Room key.
From La Piscine
Towel. Shirt. Wet footprints, unavoidably.
From The Courtyard
One board. Several unfinished games.
From The Cigar Terrace
MCDXIV. The ashtray. Whatever is left in the glass.
From The Bath House
Salts, and the hour they require.
From Réception
Postcards. Stationery. The key, conditionally.
After dinner
MCDXIV. The house glass. The ashtray. Whatever is left in the glass.
From Room 1414
Sleep mask. Playing cards. Slippers. And the key, conditionally.
Objects with an address
Nothing begins in the Boutique.
The cards begin after lunch. The glass begins at the bar. The towel begins beside the pool. The key is more complicated.
