More from Pike’s Market

More from Pike’s Market

Early Thursday afternoon we spent exploring Pike’s Market.  In general, it was a fun atmosphere to be in (although there were a few dark, smelly, Eastern shops…).  If you have plenty of money it would even be a fun place to shop in… ;-)  A couple of us bought lunch there but besides that the only thing we shelled out for was a bouquet of flowers.

Pike’s Market Flying Fish

This was by far the funnest element of the market…the famous fish throwing.  These guys were fun, involved, friendly, and loud!  And they threw fish around the room…I actually came about 5 inches away from being walloped with a quite large flying fish.  It was awesome!  ;-)  

Here’s a short video that shows you a little…but you’d really have to be there to understand the atmosphere.

Tulips at Pike’s Market, Seattle

One of the fun parts of Pike’s Market was simply seeing all of the varieties of flowers (mainly tulips) all together.  The colors were amazingly vibrant.
