Marché des Capucins

It's no big secret that the french love their markets, here there seems to be several every day. As seasonal tourists we decided to head to the Saint Michel quartier of Bordeaux for the Marché des Capucins. My oh my, never have i ever seen quite so many market stalls. Or fromage!



Rows upon rows upon rows upon rows upon rows of fruit and veg stalls


New pal!


Now, i am the biggest fan of dried fruit. I am also quite an indecisive person. 
So naturally i spent approximately 125654hrs deciding what i wanted.
In the end i went for dried qumquat (wasn't a fan), kiwi (also not a fan), peach and figs. The figs were the winners in my eyes.




Hey did you hear about the explosion in the french cheese factory?
- All that was left was de brie!

(couldn't resist)

And it just wouldn't be France without a man playing the accordion...
