From down the street comes the sound of cheerful accordion music. A strolling player, accompanied by wife and baby. I take a picture from third floor balcony, nearly a block away. He turns and waves, blows a kiss.
Over to Super Discount, still known to us as the Elephant store from one of its previous incarnations. Home with a chicken and some fruit and veggies. One of the nicer things about buying produce here - apart from the general lack of plastic packaging, with the notable exception of Lidl - is that you can buy the amount you actually want. Well, that is related to the non packaging as well as to the old European and Middle Eastern tradition of shopping several times a week, for freshness and no doubt originally down to lack of refrigeration. Anyway, it allows me to buy two tomatoes, three onions, six mushrooms, four clementines.
