Day: Sunday ; Time: 4am, Place: Braderie de Lille, France! Company: 6 gypsies set off to travel under the sea to tramp the streets of Lille, France in search of the elusive treasure!
What a wonderful day it was! I was in seventh heaven....it was like being in the biggest junk shop in the world! It is undescribable....thousands of poeple (they say 2 million visit every year), thousands of stalls, all selling this and that and even a bit more! lol I certainly didn't take enough photos...
Walk; buy; walk; coffee; walk; look; walk; lunch: the traditional moules et frites; glass of rose!
Walk; more treasure; walk; amazing sites; new made to look old!
Back under the sea, and time to collapse!
Thank you to the best 5 gypsies I know,, Jane ( thank you for driving) Kate, Julie, Helen, and Charlotte it was pleasure to be with you, and I am raising a glass to the next one!
jusqu'à la prochaine fois!

Looks great fun, but exhausting!
Wow, it looks amazing! Did you get some great goodies? Bet you feel like you need to sleep for a week after a trip like that, you must have walked miles around all the stalls xx
