We knew ahead of time that a visit to the the royal stables were a part of the palace ticket. The website said that the horses would be moved to fresh pasture mid June so we thought that we had half a chance of seeing them. However they left three days earlier, clearly at the start of June not mid June. When we were getting our ticket scanned, we asked about the horses. Leslie could not contain her disappointment of not getting to see them. The ticket taker indicated that the web site had provided bad data, we must not have been the first to have been expecting to see the horses. We strolled through the stables and saw the carriages. Then it was a 15 minute walk to the Landemaerket. The market was two buildings with stalls lining the interiors and a green market with vegetables was set up in the space between the buildings. We stocked up on some necessities and a few luxuries and took the bus back. We are getting our money's worth on the bus pass
Lead us to the stables
Yes, a horse transport vehicle, perhaps they still have a horse or tow around
Nope, just the lingering smell of horse poo
But a huge collection of carriages
Dating back hundreds of years
Riding in style
Not too ostentatious
Picking up trash! Bravo!
Tall spopire
Round tower with a big continuous ramp inside
A series of cafe tables were set up in the square
Flowers for sale
Bikes at the train / metro station
Needed to pick up some hot pepper powder
And a sample gin box
This is similar to a market in Madrid
The veggies were very good
The selection of tomatoes was impressive
The market also reminded us of one in Lyon
Possible angler fish
Shrimp and langostinos
Flounders
These knives were very fancy
$700 to $900 kind of fancy
More wooden rowing boats
It has been 2 years and 5 days since we began our Migration
