Saturday at the Fair (picture heavy)

I have a lot of pictures for Saturday so I'll just say we drove 2hrs for a Renaissance Fair, it was fun, it was different, it wasn't as historical as we expected (was hoping for a learning experience with the kids), and we will probably do it again next year : )


Making our way to the entrance


Isaiah and Roo at the gate


The Wenches helping a lady with a bee


Not sure what they were doing here they would spit food and try to catch it...if it fell on the ground they still had to pick it up


The guys liked this area



I found a knitter


Some of her items for sale the hats started at 30.00


I have no idea he wanted the crowd to yell Yea with him


The hats were selling


Back then they didn't have the rides we have now...so you got to go down a very long slide


I liked this set up...the puppets were cute


Meet your King Isaiah and Queen Roo


The Church (not sure you can see the guy in black first pew, praying)


Huge pirate ship, later a guy was twirling flame throwers...


Roo was getting into the spirit of things



Again due to the times the guys in the center had to push Roo around


She danced several times with different items on her head ex:drink, ketchup bottle, cane, sword...


This was Roo's favorite...she came around the crowd as well


As you walked around you saw different people playing various instruments


This was the singing wenches and lad


Her items were AMAZING!


The Knight of Scotland


Would get a hoop then aim for a hay stack, he didn't do very good on this event


He announced the different activities


The other knight who won...I didn't catch where he was suppose to be from


Let's Joust


The pictures of the joust didn't turn out well, but we have video and will upload it later on


They would also hit a board and count the turns they had


Roo got to pet the horse after the joust


The horses used in the joust were rescue horses, so for a few dollars you could help rescue more horses. Then the knights would sign a piece of jousting stick for you, here Isaiah is meeting the Knight of Scotland


He saved the princess...


We saw kilts


and more kilts

more

yeah and more

and more...some had tails as well (didn't get that part)


Isaiah locked up


Not sure who they were suppose to be...


The king watching the Highland games




The Highland games like throwing Haggis






Again due to the times the fun games were trying to get a stone on a lily pad : )


The pond


The Dungeon of Doom (we skipped going in there)




You could also drench a wench..

They had all kinds of these stands set up...very pretty


The Camel would pose for a picture lol


The blacksmith shop



It was a very nice day spent as a family, and Isaiah just loved it. He is very big into castles and knights...he came home and went straight to work on building his castle.
