It was a blast, i wana post pictures up soon!

[LadySeasan]

I was there, and it was awesome. I sat and talked with the Queen, who complimented me on my gown (and good lord that was the best thing ever!), and she even remembered my name when we crossed paths again

Surprisingly though I did not take lots of pictures mostly of my husband, myself, and friends.

I was there Sunday. Had a blast in spit of the early rain. What a great place. I will be back again. 

[Damien Ryan]

did any one see me there?



if you were at the joust, and last archery demonstration, i was the really really loud person in the front row LOL (bit intoxicated).

[McGuinness]

I was there of course, being in cast and all.  Glad to hear everyone had fun! it was a good weekend, even if everyone did get steamed on Sunday then ushered out by a very unhappy Mother Nature. Seems that severe thunderstorms are become an Opening Weekend tradition - it happened on opening day last year too.

colleen what acts were you in? wana know if i saw u or not hehe

[McGuinness]

I'm not in an act, per say - I'm in the faire's in-house acting company and cast. I play Lady Jane Howard, Countess of Westmoreland and sister of the Duke of Norfolk. If you saw Queen's Court, Tournament Joust, Chess, Peasant Dance, Ultimate Joust, Finale, or a noble in red and black, you probably saw me. I'll update my avatar as soon as I can find someone who got a picture of me that they let me "borrow".

[McGuinness]

i was at peasant dance! i love peasant dance.  were you giving the instructions?

Attempting to, when I wasn't forgetting random steps and mixing up left and right.    What can I say, it was a long, hot weekend and I'm rusty.  Glad you had fun - come introduce yourself next time so I can put a face with a screenname! I promise I'll try to get the steps right next time.

I was there early on Saturday and set up the Renaissance Bubble Machine to greet visitors to the Shire as they made their way to the Gate. It keeps the nipperkins amused until the Gate is thrown open. Once the throng had surged into the Shire, I made my way in and made bubbles all day in the lanes. The Cast is quite taken with the bubbles, particularly those who are new. Even the Queen loves the bubbles and sent her Yeoman to play in them (watta hoot!!!). About 5 of the clock I trundled the RBM back out to my conveyance and put it away. I returned for my evening meal and then the Finale in Song. Sunday I repeated my bubbling around the Shire until 1 and 30 of the clock when I made my way home. It was good to be back at Mt. Hope, seeing old friends and greeting the Cast. Can't wait for next week.............  Felix

I vaguely remember people shooting bubbles, but feel like it might have been little kids LOL!

[Alisoun]

I was there on opening day and had a very good time.  We missed peasant dance this time through, but we'll be ready next weekend.

Felix, we saw you and your bubbles in our journey around the Shire.  You bring joy to so many people!

[DarkLord]

Ah yes.  I was there opening day.  I certainly saw the Bubble Wright (who I see wherever I go.) Goody at the wine shop and with tasty sangria samples on the way out.  I may also have seen Damien (that image looks familiar) and possibly Alisoun.
