2.Days and hours of operation
3.Some indication of size (perhaps relative to other markets)
4.What is sold - in particular if there are any specialities.
5.What a typical shopper would purchase and some estimate of the cost.
6.Would you visit this market if you were in Paris? Why or why not?
7.Where would you have the closest experience to this Paris market in Sydney?
8.Using Google docs - create a French vocabulary list of at least 15 foods mentioned or shown in the narrative or photos in the shared document under the name of your market. Be sure to indicate the gender of each word on your list.
