Bristol Renaissance Faire

Once upon a time in a land far, far away (or two hours by vehicle) we journeyed to a faire. A faire with a Queen, jesters and jousting, turkey legs and beer, people from the future and people that belong in another world all together....what? Yes, I am talking about the Bristol Renaissance Faire in Kenosha, WI

Your typical Lord and Lady of the era.

Um...Darth Vader not so much of the era. What?!


This is what I didn't get about the festival. Lots of people dressed up in costumes that had nothing to do with the time period.

What can I say about this...it's Mike.

This lady was pretty interesting.

It was better if you could see her move. She really looked like the puppet.

Ok, this looks totally boring right? Well here is the story.

The guy with the beard (Doug) was with us (my dad's friend). The other guy is a complete stranger. We were all watching a little comedy show and Doug had to take a call so he stepped away. The other guy was picked out of the crowd to be part of the act. They told him to run up to Doug and yell, "Daddy, daddy, why did you leave me?" Doug had no idea what was going on, which made it pretty funny for the rest of us.

My dad and Penny.

This little adventure was their idea and we are glad they thought of inviting us.

...and everyone lived happily ever after

The end.

Or, we all had a good time and went our separate ways.

Mike and I topped off the day at Comet Cafe in Milwaukee.

NICE!
