This morning we took off to the Embarcadero Farmer's market. We drove to Larkspur and from there took the ferry across, just for the fun of it. We had a great time!
Here's our adventure in pictures:
First part is our Ferry trip from Larkspur to San Francisco. I grew up on boats and am much more at ease on the water than I am on land. I just love the feeling of the rocking ship, the smell of the sea, even the smell of the fuel burning brings me back to my childhood!
Larkspur's Ferry terminal! We're off!
"Huh Husband, is that Angel Island? Or Sausalito? Or what?"
You'll notice that there's nothing like sea wind to redo your hairdo!
"Ooooh would you look down there!"
After we got back on land, we stopped by Peet's for a coffee and a muffin before hitting the market.
Yes it's only coffee in there! I swear!
Finally, the market! It wasn't as big as the Saturday one, but it was also a lot less crowded. It was fun to talk to the vendors and taste so many fruits!
"Ooooh so many fruits!"
Would you look at my husband? You'd think he owns the place, too cute!
The hardest part is to decide what is worth buying, and what I can get cheaper (much cheaper) in Sonoma County. I was very careful because the prices are pretty high there. You do pay for quality, but still...
That guy could sell a fridge to Esquimos! He's super nice, had me tasting like 8 different fruits. I ended up buying some of each too! He even got my husband to taste stuff!
I was so focused on what to buy and not buy, and on having pictures for the blog, that when the guy working that booth offered to take our picture, my first answer was "No, I'm ok". My husband was like "Why?"
Cause I didn't think it through!! Sorry!!! We did get that picture, one of the very few we have!
Those are ALL peppers! Different shapes, different colors and it was huge!
In the Part two of "Our Embarcadero adventure today" There'll be pictures of our trip back and what I got! :o)
