The event of the day was at Pike Place Market! Home to the world famous fish throwers, an abundance of fresh seafood, delicious fresh fruit, a multitude of trinkets, the original Starbucks, and a pig!
Fish Throwing (also a primary supporting source for my claim of "world famous") :)
Fish throwing in action
The stand for fresh fish!
Don't know the significance of the pig, but "That'll do pig, that'll do."
Fresh bouquets of flowers

A fresh produce stand!
A view of the street adjacent to the market. There were a variety of outdoor vendors.
The first Starbucks (*picture taken on June 4)
The first Starbucks is always so crowded, I plan to visit on a weekday when no one is around. I will take pictures. After visiting Pike Place Market, my roommate, a fellow coworker, and I walked along the Pudget sound waterfront. It was very amusing, to see my reaction to a large expanse of water! Snapped a couple of pictures and then headed home.
The walk along the waterfront.
Under the sea! No! It doesn't smell, just holding my breath.
A Coloradoan's obligatory (large body of water) picture.
A statue of some guy who liked to feed seagulls. Beats me why anyone would willingly feed a seagull.
A retro Seattle squad car. Someone help me out with the identification. It is a Plymouth-something.
Tomorrow is a workday, so I probably won't have a new post until the weekend. Tentative plans for next weekend include: more nightclubs (I will take pictures this time), happy hour, Mt. St. Helens, some hiking, and maybe the pool. Stay tuned!
