Southern California Renaissance Faire

Last Sunday I attended the Renaissance Faire that's about 20 minutes from my house.  And what a faire!  These folks have clearly been doing this a while.  The layout is like a giant snake--so every single stage, shop, and eatery is on the path from the entrance to the joust.  They have an NC-17 stage where I spent most of the morning replenishing my levels of bawdiness.

The Belles of Bedlam

Then it was off to watch Jack the Dagger do some impressive knife throwing.  Yes, that blurry grey thing in the middle picture is the knife.

I ended the day by watching the final joust, which was excellent as well. Lots of fighting on both horse and ground. Altogether a wonderful way to spend a day!
