At the end of each month,
The small island northeast of San Francisco along the Bay Bridge
Treasure Island will be lively,
Because there are legendary flea markets!
(Picture fromOfficial website)
When I first heard about Treasure Island,
I was curious whether there was a novel or this island first.
(Picture fromThe internet）
So I searched and found that Treasure Island was actually filled out manually for the World Expo in the XNUMXs
Named after the novel because the author once lived in San Francisco
(A honeymoon at an abandoned mine in Napa ...)
People in San Francisco are still very romantic ~
(Picture fromThe internet）
You do n’t have to pay a toll when you drive from San Francisco, stay on the far left,
The next narrow, winding ramp is on the island!
At this time, google maps will think that you have reached the flea market,
But it's not!
Follow the large army and continue to drive to a large parking lot with the most dense cars.
The parking lot is actually an overgrown field ...
If the car is not distressed, you can stop at the roadside ...
Flea market charges $ 3 for admission.
You can pre-order on the official website, and the combo with tickets + wine is more cost-effective.
If you buy it on the spot, it's cash only, there is atm next to it.
The next step is to walk around!
The entire market is a long way away, which is very suitable for OCD patients who do not want to take repeated routes.
And often can not find the North Lu Chi at large temple fairs.
Since it is a flea market, the highlight is naturally antiques and broken copper.
This set is probably the most pleasing to the eye. I want to buy the most useful old things.
Small fresh exotic wind
I do n’t have the courage to hold the iron wok home. (Keeping a skillet is also one of the dreams of eating).
Carpenter's plane, engineer shovel, axe ...
Great Sword! !! !!
Vintage painting
The old thing is only a part, in fact, the highlight should be the local handmade brand.
Some look too Yiwu and do n’t bother to look closely,
Some are in line with the small fresh / independent design / organic tone of the Bay Area ~
Selling fragrances, the packaging labels are weird,
Example sentence spray the bitch away ~
There is wood who wants to slam a hahahaha
Scented scented candle
This taste is called "monkey fart" ... it's banana flavor ...
There is also a small sachet, which tastes great but is not very greasy. I bought winterfell and fresh fig ~
This one also sells candles and fragrances
There are also various flavors of incense, 10 sticks / $ 2.25!
Most of them taste great, some are more exotic
Another highlight is succulent and air pineapples-
For example, this one is very eye-catching and well done!
Not only all kinds of air pineapples,
Also combined with wine stoppers and small wood chips to make refrigerator stickers, "framed" with picture frames and hung on the wall
The meat in his house is also very interesting.
There is also a small pyramid-shaped hanging basket
It ’s not good. Anyway, you know what it is!
I firmly believe that there must be more than one or two selling plants, so I decided to change more.
Sure enough, I came across a wholesale store.
The round pot above looks like $ 3 for 10 pots.
On the other side is a small pot of $ 10/6. Pick a box and pick it yourself
Really love ~
After you have taken a picture of Meimei ’s display,
Seems to have returned to this simple wholesale stall = = ...
There are many dining cars at the midpoint of the entire market!
Since I do n’t want to eat when the weather is hot, I just want to buy a glass of water.
So I'm sorry this time there is a food portion hahahaha
After searching for a long time, I found that only this dining car that sells frozen custard has float as a drink.
I ordered frozen custard + coffee soda for Four Barrel Coffee.
It's all coffee, the money girl said good choice!
Float looks a little ugly, so just pat this bottle of soda that I did n’t pour out completely ~
At last, there are still large things in the market.
It may take a pick-up truck to get home.
For example, the design bench and corner table / nightstand are really tempting!
And oversized wooden tables
I thought it was for tourists to eat here
And wooden barrels ...
Did you buy it for your own wine? incredible
In short, quite an interesting market,
Everyone, come to Treasure Island on the last weekend of each month to buy and take pictures.
