Brocante

Brocante is flea-market.
They use to be high quality antiques but now its more antique junk.
The prices are also a bit ridiculous.
An old doll bed going for $200.00. All the women here love them and told me I had to go to the one in Rauzan which was held this weekend.
Today marks our 2 month anniversary of moving here and it was a great feeling to walk through the market and say hello familiar faces.




The French love chairs! The market went on and on ...an old bath tub you can find just about anything here a possible Christmas present? beautiful old watches, dont know if they work They have churros here but they call them chichi cute chair Tatiana's favorite stand they will even sell you their relatives picture an old heater


Its Bourru et Marron season which is a young fizzy wine that you drink with roasted chestnuts. The wine only last one week and it then goes off, so this week everyone drinks bourru. It comes in red, which is very sweet like a sangria and white, which we preferred.




It is not sold by the bottle, you just bring your container and they fill it up
