Marvelous Marquee

Well, last Saturday was the first of THREE December I heart Markets and yes, it was held in a marquee tent to accommodate the expanding family of Marketeers. I think this was the biggest market yet! There was a wonderful festive vibe, despite the Durban heat. 

Here's some pics of the market on the 4th December and my neighbours :)

These sweet owls are new to the token family. Such little characters :)
