a little off topic, but if anybody likes Renaissance or just plain old fun and plain old outstanding entertainment, then the Renaissance Faire in upstate NY in the summer is fabulous....

I swear they hire off-Broadway actors/actresses to play the parts.....they have the typical jousting show but the real entertainment are the random little plays that gone on all day long ....with great music and costumes....

Local Renn fest.

They have a permanent, walled in “village”.

-Real- jousting and sword fighting.

It was a trip to hear sword ringing against sword.
[and occasionally, armor....*ouch*]
