Adventuring to Pike's Place Market is always a joy. The brick streets are filled with tourists and residents of the city alike. The smell of fresh fruits, fishes, and pastries manage to find a balance that simply pulls in all who walk the crowded halls.
The gum wall. Yes, I contributed to it.
Inside Pike's is a small three story seafood cafe, Lowell's, offering the best clam chowder I have ever had. Yes, the soup is wonderful, but the experience is what makes their bread bowls spectacular. Sitting on the third floor you eat while enjoying the Puget Sound scenery. From the second floor you can receive a bird eye view of the busy market while enjoying a drink. All of their breads come from Le Panier, a bakery on Pike street. Le Panier and Lowell's are the two stops that I recommend any Seattle traveler make.
The ally leading to the infamous gum wall is decorated with layer upon layer of whimsical posters.
Occupy Seattle. By far the best occupy I've seen. There were only a couple people, they had music playing, and funny posters positioned around the tent. Maybe not the most effect protest, but definitely the most aesthetically appealing.
Crepes have to be one of my favorite meals, and desserts.
((when I am in France this summer I'll finally get an authentic crepe))
Tis the privilege of friendship to talk nonsense, and have her nonsense respected.
