we are in the middle of a heat wave right now and it is miserable. what better to do during a heat wave than go to a flea market? not.
i had made plans last week (the weather was cool btw) with some friends to go check out the new LA flea market at dodger stadium this past sunday. i really wasn't impressed. maybe it was the heat but i just expected... i dunno something more interesting after all i had read. they have pretty much the same stuff as the PCC or the rose bowl flea markets have. vintage, antiques, new stuff, food. there was also a seating area that was covered and a stage where bands play. i had read about all the food trucks that would be at the flea market and was pretty excited, but then it was just too hot to eat and the border grill truck wasn't there!
i did buy this really cute poncho ($35):
and i also picked up a few more strands of beads (and it was only about $24):
i don't think i'll head out to this flea market again, and so far PCC is my favorite. next i'll have to go to the fairfax flea market.

have you ever been to the fairfax flea market? not to be a bummer but it kind of sucks! they charge a $3 admittance fee and things are really overpriced. it's fun to do it once, but stick with PCC. OR you could always come to texas and go to round top. no charge, with thousands of vendors. they do it twice a year!
