12 janvier 2011 - Sales and Work on the Railroad

MERCREDI
Another smiley spotted in Sarlat. Buzz Lightyear accompanied a little boy to the Wednesday market.


Les Soldes
Sale
Today is the first day of the official winter sales in France. Sales are regulated by the French government and only happen twice a year- in the winter and the summer. Here is a glimpse of some of the stores advertising their sale. 

Les Travaux
Repair work
From my apartment, I had a nice view of the workers pulling up the railroad tracks along the viaduct.
I went to the train station to buy tickets for some weekend trips I have coming up. There was this sign posted: En raison de travaux, l'accès aux quais est strictement interdit au public (Due to work, access to the platforms is forbidden to the public).
It is a busy day out my window- city workers taking down the Christmas lights around the roundabout.
