The Gypsys are in town!!


Yesterday I took my son Andrei and his friend to a Renaissance fair. We always want to go, but we miss it always because is around Halloween. So these year we plan it and go!! The last day was Sunday!!So we got ready!! Dress-up yuhuuuu!!! here we go again " another" Halloween day" with costumes and a bag of cash ready to buy something we didn't need. So we park under those ancient trees full of moss ,the air was sweet and fresh from those rains before. Just when we got out the car we see all these people with clothes back from my great great gram ma day's . Andrei didn't put his costume at home ,he was waiting to see if I was the only crazy lady dress-up! Wrong !! Faeries, friars, wizards, Ice queen's ,peasants, pirates,and who knows what they are where there! .Of course he put on his costume right away!! . Pay to get in ,you can hear music all aver the camp! yes that is was the right word " camp" They got hundreds of tents with things to buy, old world shirts ,skirts, booby push-ups.Never sow so many women with there breast out! You know they sell all those corsets!! and every girl with big chest got one! Scary!I told the kids just don't look, they didn't care ,the where in a hunt for pirates toys and daggers and things the hurt! .So we first stop to see a Theater and be part of the good all day telling story's. That was fun,the jester man and his jester dog run the show as easy can be,I guess he has done show for a list haft of his life.Kids are part of the show ,parents help and cheer the play, that was really good experience for my little ones the learn how was in all those years watch and listen sitting on a stack of hay.
After the show it was time to shop ,kids favorite part ,went to every tent, touch every poppet and toy, dog's costumes, flags around,little girls with magic wands! We walk every corner of the fair, them we found the Gypsy site! with sign about 'Beware of the gypsy ,kids welcome' They have palm readers ,cards readers, gypsy wagon's .I think I even see Anna(Frosted Petunias) in there!! I wold love to have a gypsy cart for my house in Halloween. Of course the kids want to go every where .But I told them no we don't need readings " Mom can do it"" So keep walking ,got to see so many camps out the! The Irish , Vikings, Queen Elisabeth was there with her king. I ask was going there, all these tents and people sleeping in there, and believe me they are really leaving AP to the 1500's no showers, the park has restrooms thank Goddess! So I hear they are there for a week twice a year all of them come and park there staff and the fair is on!! .I have to first get pictures out of my phone to put them here! ,we got a picture of the kids and Merlin ,we visit his Grotto!! Cute and enchanting of course that was our favorite one!! Member's only!! Hey A little wizard and witch !! we can get in any where! .Man out there still are doing sword fighting and old games with stones to trow around! My Kids have a magickal day full of imagination and toy to get!. Definitely it was our first one ! and we will go again Next year ,When the gypsy's are in town!!
