Aix is a treasure!  There are daily markets and three times a week extended markets (Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays). This is the Tuesday flower market next to the Hotel de Ville where I spent the morning painting until the light shifted and vendors packed up.  The ladies in this stall kept plenty busy packaging simply gorgeous bouquets. I have my own glorious bouquet of huge sunflowers and eucalyptus. Prices, too, can't be beat.  5 euro for a giant sized collection of sunflowers.  There would definitely be lots of flowers in my life here!
