Adventure in Seattle: Pike Place Market

Our final Seattle adventure was the Pike Place Market - I know, tourist haven, but it had to be done. The market is remarkably similar to our visit 23 years ago, although I'll admit that we went early Monday evening so the place wasn't really hopping. In fact, the famous fish throwers were already cleaned up so we only got to see them throw garbage cans - not quite the same experience.

Great view of the sound from the market windows.

The first Starbucks. Line was too long to venture in - even on a Monday evening, but had to snap the photo.

The gum wall - yes, you read that right, GUM. Ewwwww. It was as disgusting as it sounds. And no, we did not contribute to it - I couldn't get any closer than taking the picture. Gross.

We finished the evening with some salmon cakes and fish and chips dinner a the Steelhead diner. Yum!

And that was that. A huge thanks to Andrea & Dan for hosting me - it was the perfect getaway from the packing and sorting and shipping chaos of our move to Bristol.
