Its market day again

Its amazing how Thursdays arrive one after another and it does seem like a week in between but that is what happened and the market is on today in Englewood and Noel wanted to get some photos.



So following an early breakfast, early for us that is, we left the house around 10.00 and drove the twenty minutes to downtown Englewood Old town where they hold the market and it was quite busy again. There is the usual range of stalls from fresh fish? to cheese and German food through to glass ornaments and even the local Democratic Party looking for people to sign up on one side of the road and on the other was the Republican Party. So we wandered around for about half an hour taking photos and then had a cup of iced tea and a cake in the local shop before heading back to Publix to for some shopping. Noel bought some Sushi for lunch which was quite good and then afternoon was spent with Jennifer reading and Noel catching up on Blogs and photos.
When travelling it is easy to amass a large amount of photos and particularly when filming flying birds and so set the camera to auto and it fires of as many photos as you like until you take the finger of the button, hence loads of photos and some of them need resetting but will leave this till I get home using my fast home computer and large screen so as to see what I am doing.
Noel went for his usual afternoon swim and the pool was a little cooler following the recent rain and cooler overnight temperatures and the water was down to 27 C from 32 C so we just have to swim a little faster.
After dinner we watched an updated version of the film called Papillion based on the exploits of a Frenchman in the early 1930’s who was sent to French Guiana Penal camp for a crime he did not commit. It was a hard film to watch but well done with a happy ending, well I say happy if you don't mind being locked up for years including at least 7 years solitary confinement and being beaten up by the guards and fellow prisoners.
And so to bed
