A Walk to buy Vegetables at the Mellah Market

Down derb Djedid
to Douar Groua which is a small square where there is parking and an old lycee



I follow a group of women past the mosque.
The palm tree casts wonderful shadows.



I head towards rue riad Zitoune Djedid and turn left.



When I stop to look at this bright window, I'm assured it's
"bleu Majorelle" - comme le Jardin.
I nod.



On the left hand side of the street is a door which hasn't been opened for many moons.
Lots of decoration however.



The fruit and vegetable market is a garden of delight. Peas, green beans, artichokes...... what to choose?
I buy olives and red roses then go to visit the owner of the pet food shop whose own cat, Norah, is the proud mother of five kittens.
