The La Trobe University market takes place every Thursday from around 9am to 3pm during semester. This is one of my favourite days on campus because I love having a look every week and browsing through the jewellery, clothes, books, Dvdies and tea stalls. Throughout the day if you are anywhere near the Humanities buildings(next to the market) you’ll be able to smell hot jam donuts. These donuts are made fresh and are so delicious and sugary that they are an instant energy boost on cold day. In the summer the students flock to the ice cream van that dishes out soft serve and gelato. I personally think the price is a little steep(around $ 5 for gelato), but judging by the dozens of students lined up by the van I am clearly in a minority. The market also includes some great second-hand bookstalls where you can pick up some great finds for only $ 5 or so. A couple of weeks ago I managed to snag a copy of Suetonius’s «Twelve Caesars» for $ 5 and a couple of months earlier I got«The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn» for the same price.
