Like Lyon, Avignon also has a permanent indoor market that is also called Les Halles. As it it is only a five minute walk away we had to visit it.

Walking through Les Halles we found a good variety of fresh foods, but we both agree...you cannot beat a good outdoor market

| Fresh Fish From Marseilles |

| Herbs and Spices |

| A Great Looking Deli |
We were surprised to find that they also have a little cooking school, and today looked like they had a childrens cooking party, with chef hats!! What a great idea for a kids party!

My favourite part of the whole market is the bar...this is where the wives leave their husbands while they go shopping....gees, like is tough when you have to sit at a bar at 10 o'clock in the morning, sipping local wine, and talking sport to your fellow desserted husbands..........Why does Lesley always drag me around markets? I would be quite happy here!!!!!!!!
We even stopped at the local oyster bar and had a dozen oysters and local wine for lunch.

After buying as few items we made our way back to the apartment for a light meal and some local wine....hey, we don't want to over exert ourselves too much!!!
