I wander the special Valentine's Day market watching people. Such odd things customs are. Why should there be only one day a year for people to buy things for each other and tell them they love them? And all because of things that happened so long ago that they have been nearly forgotten. It seems to be a mix of the festival in the summer and Saturday market. Not as many people as the festival and more people selling things.
At one place they are even giving some things away for free! I get a glass of a bright red drink and the woman waves off the money I hold out to her. I smile and thank her before moving on.
