Market socializing



The purpose of visiting the wonderful Brussels markets seems to have shifted from buying  fresh vegetables or roasted chicken to taking the aperitivo, socializing, talking, people watching ...
The lady in the photograph spoke with a British accent.  Even though I could guess her origin,  I asked where she was from and she replied that her husband was German ;).  She did answer my second question totally to the point and  said that it was perfectly ok for me to take her picture and  post it on This is Belgium.

    And where did she come from? She noticed only her husband as answer on your question.

    She certainly had a big smile on her face! You usually won't find many people who will let you take their picture. Nice images ~ :)

    Oh, absolutely! I very rarely go to markets now without taking someone with me. They are much less intriguing alone!

    On a un petit marché ici le samedi matin mais surtout pour les fruits et légumes – et les prix sont le double du supermarché. J’ai vu Liege ce matin en direct à cause du Tour de France. Cela doit être une bien jolie ville.
