Pike Place Market & Tillicum Village

We went downtown to Pike Place Market, which the kids loved. They especially loved the live seafood. They were easily distracted and had a hard time keeping up with Grandma & Papa! Here they are at the famous pig, right in front of the fish-throwing stand. We didn't see any fish being thrown because no one bought any when we were there.
We bought fruit logs, spicy pickles, candied nuts, animal beanies, and a "grapple" - an apple that tasted like a grape. Mom and dad got some spicy pomegranite jelly and a bunch of sweet peas. We were going to go into the original Starbucks, but the line was way too long. Definitely one of our favorite places to visit in Seattle.

After the market we went on a cruise out to Tillicum Village on Blake Island. You go out and they serve and salmon dinner and put on a Native American show featuring various dances from different local tribes. This was Jack's favorite event of our whole trip, he asked to go back multiple times. Unfortunately, it is too expensive to do more than once!

I took this picture from the boat.


I put this picture in even though it's a tad fuzzy because AnneMarie took it. She has just recently become interested in taking some pictures herself.
