Fairies welcome…
The Faire Fae by Christa Thompson
This past weekend I grabbed a turkey leg and joined King Edward III for the 10th anniversary of the Sarasota Medieval Fair. The event runs every weekend through November 24th and is showcasing a new line-up of nationally renowned acts for each weekend.

Maybe it’s the hand-crafting artisans or the gathering of fairies and knights all in the same place, but I love Medieval Festivals! The Sarasota Medieval Fair has a great line up for this year:
2013
Cast in Bronze
The Washing Well Wenches
Tribal Fusion Bellydance
Human Combat Chess Match and
Theatrical and Full Contact Jousting

(Make sure you see the Washing Well Wenches, they are an absolute trip)!

This is an event for the whole family. Go in costume or in street clothes, anything goes! Loads of beer, bagpipes and knights in shining armor.
Check back for my post on Human Combat Chess!

The Fairytale Traveler 
great fairy costume
Love Renaissance Fairs! There’s a great one here in Plantersville, Texas every fall. I think it’s still going on until the Thanksgiving Day weekend.
Me too, where else can you see trolls in the USA 😉
