Neighborhood flea market

Today, as I walked home from the bakery with fresh croissants, a woman stopped me to ask where Rue de la Roquette was.  I sort of pointed and said "over there."  I didn't think much of it until later in the morning when we went out for a walk and discovered that starting about a block from our house, and throughout the la Roquette neighborhood, little flea markets had been set up.  This is what it looked like.

We also saw lots of people carrying odd items through town as they walked away from la Roquette.
