Market

 I return today where I left off yesterday. The Aberdeen Pavilion is at the heart of Lansdowne Park.


A farmer's market operates out of here on Sundays during the cold weather and in the adjacent square to the north during the rest of the year. In the weeks leading up to Christmas, the market operates both days of the weekend, and includes Christmas vendors.


It is routinely busy. They'll be taking some weeks off but returning weekly again by mid-January. In the interim, this building is going to host some of the fan events around the World Juniors Hockey championships, which is being held here in Ottawa and shared between the arena here and the Canadian Tire Centre out in the Kanata area, where the Ottawa Senators play.


From time to time, I indulge here.


Musicians are a staple of the farmers market regardless of time of year.


A type of food I've only recently started having, and which I showed you during a previous theme day, the arepa. They are South American in origin, and a delicious breakfast.


Some of the Christmas vendor's items.


A final look from within. Tomorrow I take you outside, for the Christmas market portion.
