After yesterdays posting that was so long it should have been divided in chapters, I’m just going to keep it short today.
We had a stunning day today of just a gentle breeze (the hurricane force winds of the last 10 days or so disappeared today), cloudless skies and a high of 24C – the warmest day yet.
After all the hustle and bustle of yesterday, it was nice to just head out to the market and do our shopping, stop at the patisserie for a treat and then meander on home again. We spent one of “those” afternoons again, just sitting in the sun reading, doing puzzle books, napping…
We did get into the usual Friday brocante today. I was REALLY tempted by several items, all of which Paul nixed (he’s feeling poor today after yesterday’s lunch). I’m not going to die without then, but I find in these things, I usually get my way….
We noticed that the 1st of May brocante (May day is a holiday here) is set for Tuesday, so we'll be hunting for treasure!
Today’s photos:

Champagne and artisan made potato chips for an aperitif
Rose bushes in full bloom at the police station
Our view every time we walk out the front door of our building
Nice day...sunny here, but cold (high of 7 degrees)...buy what you want, you'll just work an extra day or two to pay for it! post market pics, I love seeing them!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the 1st of May market here. There is supposed to be a big brocante in Beaulieu-Sur-Mer tomorrow, but the wetaherman is calling for RAIN (not showers, but rain!) If no rain, I sense a trip....
