It’s been a ‘not much done’ day today. Elayne was washing things this morning whilst I got stuck into a book called Blackberry Wine by Joanne Harris (the author of Chocolat). We took yesterdays blog to upload at the cyber café in Turre and found that it was market day again. We browsed the market, which is similar to Otley except that it’s thirty four degrees, dusty and very noisy. People are in no hurry to move on from the shade of the market stalls so they tend to stand and talk very loudly to each other because they can’t make them selves heard because everyone else is doing the same. One then has to push your way through the melee to see what is being sold. We saw a bar in the quiet corner of a square that had some spare tables under the shade of trees so we pulled in for a drink and some tapas (you may notice that we are getting rather hooked on this lunch time routine, but it does make a really nice light lunch before confronting the heat of the day again). The two pictures enclosed give a feel of Turre on market day.
We had a paddle in the sea and came back to the rental for a swim and to catch up on more reading and today’s blog.
