Entertainment Highlights and Special Events for 2008has been posted to the So. Cal. Renaissance Pleasure Faire website. There are quite a few new shows and characters running around this year; including a World Record Holding Crack-Whip Master, A new Lord Mayor's Show and Queen's Show, and Merlin: The Magician. Plus, there's a lot of new things for the kids!
Another detail I noticed (that I don't remember from previous years) is this: "Welcome to Port Deptford!" Was the faire always named Port Deptford?
Some returning favorites include: The Bold and Stupid Man Show, Jousting, and The Washing Well Wenches. However, I have to ask, "Where is Sound and Fury??"
There are quite a few shows and activities that I greatly miss from some of my previous years at the Faire. The one that I always look for on the schedule (but, haven't been to the faire in over 4 years) is the Green Tree Man. Anyone remember this guy?
I also miss the giant rocking horses. But, I only saw those one year.
Well, it's that time of year again! The Southern Califronia Renaissance Pleasure Faire is going to be starting in just 30 short days!
Faire time is always a special time for me and my family. It's an annual event to which we all look forward. This year we'll be introducing my aunt to the wonders of Jousting, Bold & Stupid Men and Turkey Legs!
Also, my sister has voiced that she'd like to go more than once this year. This is very exciting for me, as I always manage to go at least twice. Maybe I'll manage a three-pete this season!
Anyway, this is just a "starter blog entry" for the season. I like to get into the habbit of typing here so that I can post all my fun Ren Faire adventures!
Well, I went to the Southern California Renaissance Faire again. I had a blast! My mom talked me into sitting and watching TARTANIC. I didn't really want to because I'm not a fan of the Bagpipes. But, they blew me away! They were MUCH funner than a funeral! I had so much fun that I talked my family into catching another performance, later in the day :) I would have liked to stay for the "4:30 Clothing Optional" show. But, Mom got tired.
