Sablet: Markets

A series of pictures taken at markets, mostly the one at Malaucène.
  *
  *
  Fabrics of all kinds. *
  *
  Lovely fat asparagus. *
  Plentiful supplies of garlic. *
  A wide range of jams and honeys. We bought a jar of lavender (Miel de Lavande, near the centre of the picture). It tasted amazing and, by careful rationing, just lasted out our stay in France. *
  And we could have bought lavender, but Quarantine would not allow it into Australia. *
  Bring your own container, and get your olive oil from a hand pump. *
  The top part of the sign reads: "French beef, horse, lamb, pork". A wide range of fresh meat. *
  And, of course, you can buy toys. *
  *
  We were rather surprised to find these fruit jellies being sold from a stall at the top of Mount Ventoux. *

We also spent a day travelling around the Dentelles and nearby villages.
