That is one of the things I love about Europe!! In any big city there is always an outdoor market on the street in the morning and I absolutely loved buying fruit. Last summer when I was in Berlin I bought a bag of cherries every day!!! I even learned the German for cherries- kirsch!!!I wish I lived in big city sometimes!!!
