Elne

Monday, Wednesday and Friday
 You say....
Elne is a really lively market on a Friday in Summer. I wouldn’t really say it’s a tourist-trap, offering all sorts of general goods, 3 excellent sewing/knitting stalls, and of course the usual olives, spices and fresh fruit and veg. With our visitors we sat at a café and had coffees, were treated (?) to some local bagpipe band’s offerings, and picked up a freshly spit-roast chicken to take home for lunch. Quite easy parking too. Recommended.
