It's the group that shoot the cannons at that little boat made out to look like a ship!
The Romans. Yes, the Romans.
These girls danced a lot that day. I just didn't think they had enough enthusiasm. I know, when you think ancient Egyptian, the first word that comes to mind isn't usually "enthusiasm". Still, they weren't my favorite.
This was during the jousting show on the Field of Honor, the arena our tent was right in front of. We heard this show so many times, we decided to go and actually see it. Pictured above is the MC.
Random crowd shot.
Did I mention Lord Fred? He sat beside our tent, and attracted children and adults, alike. The story for Fred goes that he once ruled over a piece of land in Europe, when a wizard came and stole the land from him. Poor Fred was turned into a gargoyle by the wizard, and he's been stoned ever since.
Brigg and her sister, Bran, who came on Saturday and helped us on Sunday.
Brigg's Aunt, the lady who made all of the wonderful stuff we sold.
We walked around again, and saw the warriors posing for pictures. I decided it was time for a photo opp!
The first time, Brigg accidentally pushed the button too soon. The warriors were kind enough to pose again.
There we go.
After the picture, the big guy on the left motioned to give me a hug. I went to hug him back, and the warriors started to close in on me! It was fun.
I noticed that the atmosphere was much more relaxed and cheerful on Sunday. Maybe it was just me? Maybe it was because it was the last day? Maybe it was because the weather was finally starting to improve? Who can say.
The heathens love the Romans.
These gentlemen are the King's Swordsmen. I saw them earlier this year at the Koroneberg Festival in Corona, CA. They fence to a few Shakespeare scenes that normally don't have fencing in them, such as the wooing scene in "Taming of the Shrew", as shown here. Richard, the gentleman on the ground, is Kate.
