We went along to this Middle Age Festival. At first we thought it was a festival for middle aged people but then we realised it was really a Medieval festival!!!
People were all dressed in costumes and there were many stalls, battle scenes and some crazy entertainers and of course plenty of food and beer! If you bought anything you received a golden taler for change. You could only spend talers at the festival. These festivals rotate around Germany every weekend for the whole summer - perfect for all the palladins out there!
We found a stall that was able to give us some details on both our family names. We both have a shield and come from quite royal heritage.

The highlight of the afternoon was a band who played old medieval bagpipes. A very energetic performance, particularly enjoyed by the punks in the audience.

Hey Rexy! Luv the Medieval pics, video & audio. How Cool!
the last pic in the last blog of the "attitude is everything" is sweet as mum.
Can you get me a copy? :)
also no chance of getting any of those medieval weapons?
i took one of julian's sheaths of one of his swords into port primary for CRE as an illustration on what i was talking about (didn't think they would allow me to take the sword in..) and the kids.. particularly the boys LOVED it.. they couldn't stop asking questions about it and wanting to touch it.. ha.. funny.. so no chance of getting an old school medieval axe?
ha good times..
