Ithaca Apple Fest!

The 27th annual Applefest! Yay. In the Commons, which is downtown. It kinda looks like Quincy Market there... I like it :)
Except, there are A LOT of independent shops and things. Not very many chains. Oh, but there's a Bank of America there! Oh, so happy to see that. There are only BoA ATMS here ~_~



And they have Starbucks too! there are only 2 here.
I'm not a fan, but it feels like home in there.

OH! And they have 1000 Villages there too! I was surprised to see that.

Too bad it rained all day.

So they sold lots of apple products and arts and crafts. Ithaca is really crafty.

Lots of American-ness going on. Yknow, the stuff you SHOULD see at fairs and stuff. There was even a ferris wheel (that went SUPER fast. I didnt get on that, duh).

I bought a corn dog! It was really small ~_~

But they had pumpkin funnel cake. I should have eaten that.

Ummm.... they must be delicious but.... *cringe*
Did you know these existed?!?!

Bought some of these from this really nice lady. She had so many pretty....things! I dunno what they are, but you can hang them up. She had sooo many pretty hangy things and boxes and frame! I wonder who will be the lucky recipients of these.

Ithaca has such a diverse population! There's always laotian food, Thai food, Chinese food, Tex-mex, and a lot of Indian food there too. There's also a strong Native American presence. It rivals Brookline's diversity, most def.
