la brocante 2014


Last Monday there was an enormous brocante (a market of "stuff") at Amboise.  There were so many interesting things to see and buy.  This is but a tiny example that caught my eye.

    1. It's great stuff... if not to buy, at least to look at.

  4. The cute little reading guy is for me. I suppose these markets must be a real "treasure hunting".Momemts to discuss and spend some money and then at home to find the right place for the new "acquisition".

    1. I tell you it is difficult to not find something at these places. I guess it's a sign we're getting on little home in Amboise in order in that we didn't buy anything this time! But it was still fun to look and take photos.
