Dahlia Flowers at Pike Place Market

There are several florists offering brightly-colored bouquets of flowers at incredibly cheap prices at the Pike Place Market in Seattle. Here's a photo of some dahlia flowers that I took.

Pike Place Market Seattle

A trip to Seattle isn't complete without a visit to Pike Place Market. Here all sorts of fresh produce and flowers are peddled with vim and vigor, but none more so than the fish retailers who cry out inviting you to make a purchase, and then play football with the fish you select. Somehow the guys manage not to drop the slippery fish as the guy at the front throws it the the guy at the back who wraps it up for you.
