Ah, those days. I used to do almost the same when going on vacation but somehow I always ended up buying more books at the destination. Long warm nights, excellent wine and a lot of reading.
I remember also going to the local bars in the Greek islands, where they usually had a shelf - or a couple - where you could pick up a book others had left and drop one of your own. Did that a lot. The books I dropped were usually light summer reading, Dan Brown and stuff (some people like them). But I must admit I never left an Ellroy or a Lehane behind. These came back with me
Nowadays, I couldn't travel without my two Kobos
