Not so common in Sweden are markets anymore. From time to time you can see markets here, but in France they are very common. Every week on Saturdays there is a market in La Londe, were we stayed. From early morning until mid day you can buy, olives, chicken, meat, fish, fruit, vegetables, cheese, clothes, records, candles, honey, glasses and so on. The market was very crowded and the lines were very long in front of the most popular sellers.
We spent a few hours at the market and bought olive oil, olives, fresh figs, cheese, bread and some wine. The fresh warm and newly picked figs tasted wonderful and were soon finished. After a small cup of coffee, we brought all our things back and had a wonderful lunch.
