THE MOST IMPORTANT STOP WAS AGAIN AT PIKE PLACE MARKET TO VISIT THE TEA AND CRUMPET SHOP. THIS IS THE ONE AND ONLY PLACE WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO FIND JW'S FAVORITE ENGLISH TEA SO I PURCHASED HIM SEVERAL BOXES OF IT IN HOPES THAT IT WILL LAST HIM UNTIL WE CAN RETURN TO SEATTLE AGAIN.
SO THESE BOXES OF TEA ARE SAFELY TUCKED AWAY IN MY BAGS FOR THE RETURN TRIP HOME. YES, I TOO LAUGHED WHEN I SAID "SAFELY TUCKED AWAY IN MY BAGS"!!! THAT REALLY IS FUNNY BUT I HAVE BIG PLANS OF NEVER LET THAT BAG OUT OF MY SIGHT AGAIN!!!
I DID A BIT OF WANDERING AROUND THE MARKET BEFORE HEADING HOME. IN A SMALL ALLEY JUST OFF THE MAIN MARKET AREA I FOUND THIS VERY SMALL THEATER...A VERY ODD SIGHT AT FIRST. BUT THE SIGN HELPED EXPLAIN THE ENTRANCE TO THIS PLACE.
THIS IS THE WALL RIGHT AT THE ENTRANCE AND TICKET WINDOW. IT IS COMPLETELY COVERED IN PREVIOUSLY CHEWED GUM! I WONDER IF IT STARTED FROM ASKING TICKETS BUYERS TO PLEASE LEAVE THEIR GUM OUT OF THE LITTLE THEATER. MAYBE THEY TIRED OF CLEANING IT OFF THE CHAIRS AND FLOORS!
AND IT LOOKS LIKE THIS WALL IS A CONTINUOUS WORK IN PROGRESS! AMAZING.I SPENT THIS EVENING PACKING ALL OF MY NEW PURCHASES FROM THE MANY PIKE PLACE MARKET SHOPS, PLACING THEM DEEP DOWN IN MY BAG HOPING FOR A SAFE RETURN BACK TO MONTANA IN THE MORNING.
