Our plans for Saturday included a trip into Aix-en-Provence to spend some free time exploring this city. It was market day so we watched the city come to life. What a sight to see! The food on display looked so fresh. We sampled some delicious cheese and breathed in the smell of chicken roasting in Herbes en Provence...yum! The flowers were all blooming, the linens and soaps were displayed so temptingly...how nice for the people who live there to have access to this wonderful selection! We enjoyed a cappuccino and were entertained by the air-kissing going on between the other customers at the cafe. The smell of baked bread lured us into a shop and Kris and I each devoured a flaky, buttery chocolate croissant.
This hurdy-gurdy man entertained the kids while I selected another small painting to take home and add to my collection. We gladly headed for the bus at the end of the day, tired from the week's worth of sightseeing. This was our last night on the ship and we were due to arrive back in Barcelona the next morning.
