Le Marche

Butcher in the covered market. Horse meat, brain and kidney were the only "unusual" things I saw.

Cheese stand. Get your butter, cheese and other dairy. Cheese lovers delight.

Other cheese stand in Paris this time.

Fresh fish stand. Some great displays.

Fresh Local Produce.


Colorful flowers.

We have enjoyed our strolls through the local marche (markets). Most cities around here have their own market. It is fun to venture down the aisles and look at all the stuff being sold. Some markets are only food related while others have food and household items such as linens, cutlery, clothes, toys and etc...
I love walking through these to see the local foods, smell the prepared foods being sold, and hear the chatter of the sellers trying to get your attention. The produce people entice you with a free test of their freshest fruits. It's an adventure that engages all your senses except the sense of touch but if it is crowded you get to shove around people, hence being a complete sensory experience!
