For the nine years I have spent in this country, I never made it to one of those Renaissance fair. This weekend, I finally made it to Carolina Renaissance Festival. It was like a short Journey back to a vibrant age of romance, adventure and magic.
One fall lazy FUN day at the festival, and there was something for everyone. My friends and I totally enjoyed the excitement of the spectacular Joust performance in the presence of the Queen. We tried our hands on archery or axe & star throwing and enjoyed listening to that beautiful period music, after I was feasting on the famous roasted turkey legs and a goblet of mead. We lived the recreation of the most festive aspects, of one of the most epic eras in history.
