Seattle: Pike Place Market

Last week I flew out to Seattle to attend my nephew's wedding. One of the sites everyone told me not to miss was Pike Place Market along the waterfront. I wish I lived locally so I could have taken home some of the gorgeous flower bouquets, mouth-watering fresh produce and fresh seafood of all kinds. 
Pike Place Market is a public market overlooking the Elliott Bay waterfront in Seattle, Washington. The Market opened August 17, 1907, and is one of the oldest continually operated public farmers' markets in the United States. Pike Place Market is where retailers like Starbucks and Sur la Table got their start.

Hi Jeanne, Your photo's are beautiful. The flowers are amazing, if I lived there my home would be filled with flowers, such great prices. I am so happy that you were able to go. Thanks for sharing. Hugs, Terri
