Old Downtown Farmers' Market

It was a sunny, lovely Presidents' day down here in LA, so we headed out to the old Farmers' Market. It was very much like Pike Place, only even more so.














Wayyyyyyy off in the distance, that's the Hollywood sign on the hill! We could almost even make out the ocean from our vantage point on the top of the parking structure.


After hitting Cost Plus on one end of the block, we decided we needed to stop and get a bite to eat just to sustain ourselves before heading home.... Fortunately, there was a nice little baked goods counter selling Princess Cake by the slice and finger cakes they called "Marzipan Bones". Yum!

Shaun and Eli didn't join us this time. The market would have been just a bit overwhelming, so instead they went for another hike up the hillside back at the ranch.
