We started out our first day in Ithaca with a trip to the Farmer's Market. It was much bigger and more popular than we expected....we sat in traffic for almost a half hour just to get there! It was well worth it though and we had a blast! There was so much to look at and it reminded us so much of the markets and Art Fairs in Ann Arbor. We bought some snap peas and potatoes for dinner that night as well as home made Cinnamon rolls that we had for a late breakfast - yum! I also found a cute little hot pad with birds on it....yep, just my style :-) After venturing through the market we went outside to watch the boats, listen to live music, and eat some more snacks.
After the Farmers Market we headed back to the cabin to spend the rest of the day on the lake!
As you can see, the beach was pretty rocky. I was bummed at first and thought Brett would be disappointed - but nope, he found ways to dig and play in the rocks and mud...no sand needed :-) Kyle even taught him how to skip rocks!
That evening Kyle made us an amazing dinner...grilled Pork Tenderloin, oven roasted potatoes and snap peas (from the market of course). And guess who found out he loves snap peas?! Cooked vegetables are a new favorite for our little picky eater :-) Finally, something healthy!
After dinner we went for another swim and enjoyed the nature we were surrounded by. True bliss :-) When we finally got Brett to bed around 10pm Kyle and I had a couple drinks together and played a game of checkers. A perfect way to end a perfect day.
