Americas Best Value Inns and Suites (formerly the Canterbury INN) is a pretty nice place to stay too. It's actually the home office for the festival. They have pretty good deals. You can get a room and 2 tickets for fest for just over 100 dollars. It's right off of HWY 169 (about 10 minutes from fest), which in my opinion makes it a little easier to get back to after fest on a busy day since 169 is a 4 lane HWY. There are lots of places to eat and shop fairly close by too just an intersection away on 169. Also if you want to drive into the cities, like to the Mall of America it's a shorter drive then from Chaska.

As for Twig. I can't believe fest gives her that much power. Seriously, I wouldn't miss her if she were gone. I don't think she's that big of a draw. She's no one we go looking for when we got fest. If we happen to wander by her, we might stop and watch her for a bit, but we certainly don't try to find her. In my opinion she's not the draw that Puke and Snot were. Not the draw that the new Puke and Snot and the Tortuga Twins are . Really, fest should be all about fun for the kids, and I am sure kids like collecting as many trinkets as they can and they don't care what fairy they get them from. If Twig wants to monopolize that aspect for only herself it shows how little she really does care about the kids. Yes she is a significant character at fest, but she ain't all that!

So very glad I had the opportunity to hang out with Colorado's favorite dragon today! Helping you pick out your new collar was fun - I hope you love it, Flicker! Best wishes to your mom and I hope you have fun at Bristol next weekend!

Fireflicker, I'm so glad I got to meet you this weekend. You are an amazing dragon! We'll fatten up a nice, tender peasant child for your next visit.

I LOVED MEETING YOU! Please make sure your friend lets me know where pictures of you and the kids are if she can. You were amazing and the kids adored you :)

I hope to be able to visit you at your home one day :)

Bubbles are pure magic... if you don't believe me watch any man, woman, or child chase a bubble down the road.

I would have to say at the Colorado faire that FireFlicker is getting her own little following

This young dragon seemed to be there most weekends.

I would say maybe in a few years her following may even be bigger then twigs.

Very cool pics. I bet people would have been surpised if you were posed like that all quiet when they walked up to the water garden area.
