Market Day in St. Remy

Today was a laid-back quiet day in St. Remy. There did not seem to be too many of the same vendors as the weekend market. There was on that was the same and it still didn’t have the jacket in the right size for me – too bad because I would have bought it. There was a very charming man with lovely silk wool scarves. I said I was not interested as I did not need another scarf, We had asked him to help pick out a scarf to go with my friends new dress. He tied the scarf in a new way and he wanted to pick out one for me. He immediately picked out one for me and tied it around my neck. I did love it and bought it. I asked him how often that worked for him and he said almost always.

The streets are so charming. Flowers everywhere. We had a lovely evening of wine and snacks on the terrace, followed by a salad and sautéed vegetables for dinner on the terrace until 10 PM. The latest we have been up so far. It was lovely. Somehow the song Amazing Grace came into the conversation giving me an opportunity to share my daughter in law singing a wonderful rendition of Amazing Grace at sunset.

I have not had any pain at all, only some mild numbness in the morning so I am going to try sleeping lying down tonight. I have used my topical diclofenac and taken torodol. I have also been avoiding playing Soduku on my phone so I hope I will not trigger the pain. Fingers crossed.

Tomorrow we will venture south of Marseilles to the coastal village of Cassis. It is amazing how quickly the time is going.
