Around Aix

Here are some photos of our life in Aix-en-Provence. You can see Yvette and Niko in front of a near-by e'glise, whose welcoming bells we hear every day.

You can also see Yvette/Niko on Cours Mirabeau, the beautiful, tree-line boulevard which captures the heart and spirit of Aix. Cafes and vendors of all kinds line the Cours. Our flat is about one block away on a side street.

The other picture is of me at the popular outdoor market that fills one of the plazas. Fresh produce of all kinds is readily available, along with fresh fish and sumptuous-smelling roasting chickens.

Interesting enough, the prices at the outdoor market don't seem to be much different from the local store markets. It must be about l'experience.
