David goes to China

I'd done too much walking and my foot hurt- quite a bit. I needed to find a pharmacist. At the first one after a prolonged and fairly fuitless discussion (not many words in common) I ended up with some herbal remedy which didn't relieve the pain. So the next day I looked for one with medicines I'd heard of.
Eventually found some western painkillers.
So I'm walking around a foreign country with a walking stick and a baseball cap, slightly unshaven, munching Tylenol.
