My favourite places: Part 1 – Pike Place Market

After a summer of working at a US Summer Camp, the lovely Sarah and I took a plane to Seattle. I say we took a plane to Seattle, what we actually did was take a plane to Dallas (over some serious wild fires), and then on to Seattle. We were students – it was cheaper that way.

So, there we are. The home of grunge. The home of coffee. The home of memorials to Cobain and Hendrix.

But by far the most striking memory of the place was Pike Place Market. If you’ve seen ‘Sleepless in Seattle’, and let’s face it, if you didn’t mean to a female friend will have made you see it at some point, it’s where Tom goes to talk through things with his builder friends.

Flying fish, amazing clothing and music stalls, and every vegetable you could dream of.
