Vacation. Monday. August 4th.

Pike's Place Market ~ Seattle

Monday we went to the famous Pike's Place Market ... and it was wonderful!

The market was alive with people and there was so much to choose from. Fresh flowers, vegetables, fish, seafood, pastries, fresh herbs, gifts, paintings, prints ... if you wanted it ... it was there!


Mike, Griffin and me in from of the famous Public Market sign


Bett, Mike and Griffin in front of the same sign ... it looks like Griffin was cut out of both pictures


Fresh flowers were available everywhere ... and they were SO affordable!!


Fresh veggies were also in abundant supply


Surely you've heard of the fish market at Pike's Place where they throw fish ... well, they actually have several of them in the market. This is the first one we came upon. Bett is in the picture with one of the fish guys. This isn't the "famous" Pike's Place Fish Market though.


Here we have a picture of THE famous fish throwers at Pike's Place Fish Market. They were amazing. It was such fun watching them. When someone orders something they have this little routine they do and it's as if they all break out into song together.


Just look at this crab ... yummy!


We ended our visit with lunch at Ivar's on the waterfront. It was really good!!
