The Market

On day three in Seattle, we started out with a visit to Pike Place Market (after sleeping in and eating a yummy breakfast courtesy of John and Wendi). Pike Place was fascinating. Lots and lots of people. Lots and lots of stuff for sale. We didn't buy a thing!

We parked at Wendi's office building (free parking again!!) and walked a few blocks to get down to the waterfront. She said because it was Sunday, the streets of downtown weren't very crowded. It looked like a lot of people to me, but I'm used to Cottonwood, Idaho!


This is the iconic fish stand where they throw the fish around. We didn't get to see much throwing because there weren't many customers buying anything. The guy in the foreground is throwing a crab to the guy in the middle here.



Looks pretty crabby!





They sell a little of everything at the market, but the best deal looked to be the fresh flowers, and they were everywhere!!! This bunch was only $15!! Aren't they purty?
