R & I spent the gray, chilly, muddy day at a Medieval Festival and I can think of nothing better I could have done with myself. It was complete with weaponry, bratwurst, goth kids, bagpipes and Gluhwein. Also, one tent offered  "Meth" and Absinthe.  No joke.  Definitely my favorite sign of the day.  Okay, so the "meth" was mulled mead.  

Here are a few pictures and more can be found on my flickr page if you care to venture there.

R and I pick our Gluhwein booth based on the mug they serve it in.  This was today's winner.

The bright yellow signs are really unnecessary, just follow the cloaked girl and you are sure to find the festival.

More dressed up goodness.  I wish I had gotten more photos, but it gets dark so early here so it just didn't happen.

*chuckling* Love the thoughts of "meth and absinthe" for sale. You'd never find that sign stateside at a medieval faire. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

I didn't get great photos of them, J. But there is one or two on my flickr page. They're a version I don't know the name of. Just two drones that are funnel shaped at the end. Anyway....they weren't great, but I perked up when I heard them tuning in the distance. :)

You bringing your pipes?
