Day 8: To market to market...

 Day 8 arrived, and Doug and I headed out for a quick run before showering, noshing and heading out with Brock, Sarah and Chef Emma to market.

Always a fresh wonderful spread:

It was a quick ride into town to the Narbonne market.

Had to get a pic of the guys repping GA:

Thinking of Caroline with her love of chocolate croissants:

Fresh local olives:

Picking out what seafood and meat and vegetables we'd like the chef to prepare:

Fromage:

After the market we went to the city square to stroll and shop - due to the drought no one can have fresh potted plants/flowers so there is colorful artwork throughout the city:

After the market we drove to a fabulous restaurant for lunch:

Sea bream ceviche served in the fish was incredible:

Deviled eggs with caviar:

It looks like it's just lettuce, but IT WAS FABULOUS!

Mushrooms in wine (Spanish) 

Fresh burrata topped with local olive oil:

Peach gelato with a peach/nectarine cold soup was TO DIE FOR:

All local organic or biodynamic wines:

We're now back on the boat and heading out to the next port/marina which is supposed to be very rustic/quiet.  It's a 2 hour ride.  Aperol spritz's were awaiting our arrival, so we are happy.  Some doing some business and catching up and others just peacefully enjoying the ride/scenery.  Life is good.

Brock got in some "pilot" time earlier in the day:

Oysters from the market:

Life changing tuna tartare!  OMG

Yet another fabulous 5 star meal from Emma!  We savored  every bite!
