We drove into Mirepoix the weekend before last for its Christmas market. The day was sharp and cold as a diamond but I've rarely seen this medieval town look more beautiful. It wasn't too crowded, and the winter light was low enough to spotlight the carvings under the arcade. Anyway, mes amis, some photo ops with extended captions.
A boulangerie that believes when it comes to Christmas decorations, more is more. The climbing Santa figure is very popular around here.

I love this butcher's shop in the corner of the square. See those rotisserie chickens behind the sign? Kids around here watch these instead of television. |
