Sausages, Soaps, and Sandals

      So my morning started at 3:30 am when I woke up from what I thought was a deep, relaxing sleep.  Unfortunately, it was just a pathetic tease to my jet lag.  The only positive thing about being up at that time was that I got to be the first to wish my daddy a happy birthday! It was only 8:30 pm in Mississippi, but in France my daddy rick had already turned 54 (but he doesn't look a day over 25!)
     After a delicious breakfast of homemade chocolate chip granola with vanilla yogurt (yes, I avoided the pastries. Saving those delicious treats for breakfast in Paris) we headed to a nearby town called Apt for their local market.  It was a beautifully chaotic mixture of sausages, soaps, and sandals.  You could literally find everything at this place!  A few hours of shopping later, the group headed out to a local landmark bridge to enjoy a nice picnic lunch next to the water.  My day is not yet over, but I feel like I've already had ten adventures.
