Food for thought.....or thinking of food?

Nothing profound. Nothing philisophical. Just food. Lots and lots of food.

The wonders of Marseille

 

May not be its famed calanques (fjords), but this man seen below:




Baguette peddlar or French 'backpacker'?



This guys sure eats a lot of baguettes. Maybe he intends to stay overnight at the calanques, which is quite ridiculous because the sea wind will freeze you to death at night.

Marseille is a nice coastal city, but it still has a long way to go for a tourist magnet. The city is currently upgrading its transport infrastructure - building a network of tramlines across the city centre - showing its unsightly construction works to the tourists. At least it's quite safe now, with police patrolling the place 24/7.

I still haven't recovered from climbing up and down those calanques, even though it's been 4 days already. Feel like a useless old man.
