In an effort to ward off jet-lag related lethargy this morning, I decided to get up off the comfy couch and walk on over to the brand new Fulton Farmer's Market. It's a gorgeous day out there, after all, so it seemed a shame to waste it, even if the French Open is on TV.
I am really glad I decided to head out. Some highlights of my walk (note: these photos were taken with my shiny new cell phone. It takes nicer photos than my first digital camera):
A lovely street on my walk. I LOVE all the trees.

Finally, I arrived at the market. It's small, and it's a bit too early for any good veggies or fruits, but there was still a pretty decent crowd:
I picked up some potato/flax bread from Sun Street Breads and some sheep's milk Camembert. I plan to enjoy both of them as my lunch. :-)
It was only about a 15-20 minute walk over to the market, but I am SO glad I got out to enjoy the day. It was pleasantly warm-ish with some beautiful sunshine and blue skies. Clearly, I brought this weather back with me from Paris. On my way home, a stop by the lake seemed appropriate:
I still can't believe sometimes that this is so close to my apartment. Lake!
Finally, the caretaker of my building has been hard at work on the flower pots out front:
Aren't they lovely?
And now, some French Open on TV and a yummy lunch in a bit. So looking forward to two more days of weekend after this.
