Walk: from apartment to the farmer's market and back twice, 2 miles
Accommodation: Touche Majordomesque (Airbnb)
What a nice day. Our apartment is comfortable. We slept late, had a nice breakfast, did a load of laundry, and drank multiple cups of coffee. Ken read while I worked on the blog. About noon, he decided to walk to the grocery store for lunch and dinner supplies. A little while later, he returned with fresh fruits and vegetables from the farmer's market. As he described all the food he didn't buy from the stalls, we decided to make another trip together.
What a wonderful market, in a square just a few blocks away, with all local providers. We got meat and yogurt and crème brulee and cheese and blackberries and a melon and tomatoes and potatoes and...We could have gotten so much more, but there's only so much two people can eat in two days.
From the farmer's market, we headed to the supermarket to get nonlocal items like coffee. On the way there, we passed a boulangerie, where we just had to buy croissants and pain au chocolat and a big brownie.
I know. We spend way too much time and attention on food. Oh, well.
A lovely, cool day. We are hoping the heatwave has broken, but we head south and west in a couple of days, so we will be in a slightly different climate. We will take what we get.
