Seattle - Exploring Pike Place Market! (Part 2)
Welcome to part 2!
In my last post, I talked about how I really enjoyed seeing Pike Place Market. I talked a little about some of the things we did like the Market itself, Piroshky Piroshky, and Donut Stand. Here's some of the other things we did there!
While binge watching Youtube videos before our visit, we came across 'Rachel's Ginger Beer'. I had been kind of into ginger beer for a couple of weeks prior, but @alovelymess still wasn't sold on it yet. We went to this place, and now she loves it! They sell multiple sized bottles of their incredible flavors such as Blueberry, Spicy Pineapple, Original, Passion Fruit Vanilla, and our favorite, Caramelized Pineapple. All of them were delicious! The day we left we went back for a bottle to bring home. There is only a little left. :(
Right under the Market is Post Alley. Here is the infamous Gum Wall! For years, people have come by and stuck gum here. Actually, ever wonder who started this? Who came by and stuck the first piece and was like "huh huh huh...lets put gum on a wall!". Seriously, it's everywhere! The ground, the walls, the windows. I didn't know it, but turns out in 2015 all of the gum was removed to clean the bricks, and they removed 2,300 pounds of gum. That's insane! Of course we had to leave our mark as well.
Watching the fish throw at the fish market inside Pike Place was also pretty cool! A couple of workers grab fish and throw it back behind the counter to another guy while they all sing. Although all of these things are very cool to see, don't forget to go out behind the market and sign your name on the pig as well as get a view of the ocean in the fresh air. It's relaxing!
This was some of our favorite things at Pike Place Market, let us know if you have visited and found something we may have missed!

Awesome to see you always, thank you for that great work
Ha! I LOVE @alovelymess's face as she's looking at the gum wall! Classic! And you are lucky that you're tall enough to reach above most of the pieces. I imagine it's a tad cleaner up there. Anyway, we've never been to Seattle, but thinking of taking the kiddos this year sometime. Thanks for the tips.
Btw, we make out own probiotic water kefir and my ginger citrus blend is my favorite. Super easy to make and so customizable!
Haha, me too! It did seem a tad more clean..haha. That would be fun!
No way! We'd love to know how!
Wow, great city and great pictures!
Thank you!
