The Market

There is a market on every Saturday from 6am to about noon in Fribourg very close to where we live.  I have been twice so far and it is spectacular! It goes on for several blocks and also fills the area in front of the Hotel de Ville.

There is also so much variety…you can shop for pastries, bread, fruit, vegetables, milk, all types of meat, honey, syrup, wine, beer, juice, flowers, etc.  It's all as fresh as you can get it and all very reasonable prices. All items appeared to be made or brought or slaughtered from the person selling it right in front of you. I am sure this is many of the people's sole income. Because I am pretty sure it goes all year-sun, rain or snow!
There were a couple of musicians playing within the crowds
