Off to Bordeaux early in the morning to Le Marché des Capucins to buy food for the weekend. Drove down along the Bordeaux quayside looking at the sweep of the river and the Place de la Bourse in the soft morning light. Le Marché des Capucins had a wonderful selection of fish, meat vegetables, cheese and butter from a block something I haven't seen for some years – all in all many delicious things.
