It’s been a little while since I’ve gotten a fix of some of that good ol’ treasure hunting. The digging, the surprises, that gasp you can feel coming on when you spot something nothing short of amazing — Iove it.
This, my friends, is the Alameda Antique Faire. It’s the biggest antique show in Northern California, and it is held once a month on the first Sunday of the month. I went with my treasure-loving partner Cindy. I don’t think we have ever been so overwhelmed with booths; we couldn’t even make it around to the 800 vendors. It was that good.
But what we did see, we loved. So, here is a look at this antique heaven that is nestled on some sort of Navy base between the sea and San Francisco.






























































Once again your gifted eye caught the magic of the day…beautiful photos!
Beautiful photos. I went antique shopping when I lived in Mississippi, but I never found anything good. I just didn’t have the eye for it. It was such a strange concept to me, coming from Kuwait where everything old is just chucked out
You really captured the culture. Lovely!
So jealous! I would loveee to get to go shopping somewhere like that!!
Your photos are always so amazing, love every post!
Fantastic captures, as usual! Question is: “What did you buy?!”
I love the quality of these pictures! Treasure hunting is one of my favorite things to do!
