Josh and I love markets and bazaars, so when we heard about Rockport Market Days, we made sure we didn't miss it. The only problem: the wind.
Since we've been here in Rockport, the wind has been going almost nonstop. Our first day, in fact, was so windy, it was shaking the whole camper. While I sometimes fear a Wizard of Oz situation, so far, we haven't had any huge issues. But the wind has been bad enough that it causes us to change our plans for doing things outside. And though the Rockport Market Days wasn't canceled by this wind, it definitely made it a little less pleasant.
Aside from the wind, it was a great market. There were vendors with food galore and so many artisans and crafters. It was impossible to walk passed more than a few booths without sampling the tasty treats along the way. Josh was tempted by all the knife options, while I couldn't stay away from the art and jewelry.
In addition to the vendors, lunch was available from a variety of food trucks. Josh went with traditional carnival food of hot dog and chili fries, while I found someone making pho, which I had never seen sold outside a restaurant setting.
I always wish I had a bigger budget when visiting a market, but I'm still happy with what we walked away with. Josh needed a new pocket knife, so he found one he liked from one of the vendors. Plus, we bought some popcorn, watermelon licorice, a cameral apple, and chocolate covered strawberry wine, which we will be enjoying tonight as we finish our Harry Potter marathon.
