Renn Fest

We know we are starting into Fall/Halloween/thanksgiving/Christmas, when Renn Fest starts (also, Navy football!).
We pre-bought our tickets and ended up there in a heat/humidity wave, with two children that had just played soccer. Maybe not the best plan in the end, as they both got very tired, very fast. Combined with the heat, we ended up very tired, dusty, sweaty, and a little flat. This year was also the year the kids became super aware of all the things they could do, if only the parents would part with more money. So, no browsing in shops for me.

We watched the Wheel of Danger (death?) man again, Cu Dubh, another band called Wolegmort (we liked this one better, Cu Dubh seem a little flashy), and a Joust, that was shortened due to the heat. Just as well, because one player got knocked off his horse, dragged for a couple of metres or so, and although he finished the show (but not the joust bit), he probably won't remember details.
