Sunset Part 1

Need I say more? It had just stopped sprinkling and the clouds were clearing for this beautiful sunset. This was one of the best sunsets I have ever seen.

Farmer's Market

I used to think that Farmer's market was something that one commonly observed in Europe, until I saw and went to a few in San Diego, CA. Granted they are not as elaborate as the ones I have seen in Europe, the idea and execution is well laid out. Locally grown "organic" fresh fruits and vegetables, people walking around with their recyclable cloth bags filled with goodies, vendors and local artists selling all sorts of home-made stuff, foods and flavors of various cuisine that satiates the appetite of the average Joe, etc. In short, its a Disneyland for the "foodies" (a.k.a the food lovers). Here are some pictures taken through the eye of an amateur photographer and a non-foodie.
