Fremont Sunday Market

Starts at 10:00...cool stuffaroni.  GREAT for found objects (okay...paid for, THEN found).  There is sometimes this guy who has watch parts, typewriter parts, old flash cards etc.  You pay for it but if you find that special piece...hard to turn down.

What days you say?  ...SUNDAY

Ballard has one too.  It has only handmade goods.  Lots of yumminess in the baked good department.

Daiso is a great Japanese dollarish store. Actually, most everything is around $1.50. Well worth stopping at the Westlake Mall basement. The one at Alderwood Mall was the first in the US and opened in like 2003ish (I think)

The Sunday Ice Cream Cruise that departs from by the Fremont, Adobe building docks is really fun. It's guided by the owner and he has students help him that are super sweet. It was around $8 the last time I took it but it might be a bit more expensive now.

Great restaurant areas is Belltown and Old Ballard Ave.  Just walk around and you'll find something.  Paseo on Fremont Ave constantly wins awards and deserves it for the best sandwich EVER.  

IF you LOVE galleries, here is a great reference.  It's not ALL the galleries but there is a LOT.  Also, they have free booklets at the galleries listed. Art Access - check out the venues

The houseboats on Lake Union are popular but there are signs everywhere that say "no trespassing".  You might find one or two piers with no sign and then you can go down.  But please be quiet and considerate so the rest of us can still visit these piers.
