The sun was out in force for my last day with Helen and Rob, and we got up early to shop with the locals at the farmers market in Vilanova. So much fun 🙂 Spanish flying thick and fast around you, everyone with their shopping trolleys hunting out the best fresh produce. And socks. There’s always socks at a market! ha 🙂 Quince, baby leeks, tomatoes, rainbow chard, eggplants, oranges and strawberries are all fresh at the moment, plus broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage and bitter greens. I managed to buy a purple broccoli (broquil lila) and a handful of strawberries in Spanish and it made me so happy. Having skipped through multiple countries and languages recently it is all starting to blur into an unintelligible new dialect, so when you nail it, it’s like scoring a goal. Vilanova is cool, very hip and full of people enjoying the sunshine today. Helen prepared an amazing platter of food to enjoy on their patio before we left for the airport and it was divine. I will miss their easy company, but will return again sometime. Next stop for me is Lisbon, Portugal. Bon dia x
