Today we went back in time; medieval time that is! We ended up with quite the crew; 16 of us (brothers, sisters, cousins, nieces & nephews) made the trek up north to take in some serious sword fighting, tournament games, and jousting...and of course they had to throw in a little romance. Oh yes, and let’s not forgot the royal feast served utensil-free (I was extremely close to smuggling in some silverware from home)…but it turns out eating with your fingers isn’t so terrible when the lights are dim and no one is watching you eat…and to my relief they pass out wet naps at the end J
Jayden stayed entertained with the overpriced souvenir we bought for him before the show. Plastic sword with flashing lights: $12. Hours of entertainment before AND during the show: priceless. And it was thrice the fun when each of his cousins got one & they could have sword fights in the lobby.
To top it all of, our black and white knight ended up defeating the much hated green knight to win the tournament and save the king! It was a great day spent with family, and a fun way to finish up a long weekend.
