Intense Wind + Men in Kilts + Women in Corsets = An interesting Afternoon
Posted on | Monday, April 4, 2011 | No Comments
Yesterday Kael and I went to the Medieval Fair along with our neighbor Danielle and her daughter Elizabeth. The Fair is an annual event marked by jesters, corsets, and an excess of expensive leather clothing. I absolutely love it. So does Kael.
This is our third year attending and I still get excited about it. Even though my budget can't possibly afford the $400 leather boots or boned corsets it's still so much fun to just look at everything -- people included.
The only downside is that it seems regardless of the year some inclement weather will strike during the fair. Last year it was a horrible Artic cold front that hit midday and brought the temperature from a balmy 75* to a freezing 38* in less than three hours. This year it was wind. 45 mph wind that blew dust and sand in our faces until we were nearly blinded.
This is Oklahoma though, weather doesn't faze us. Especially not wind.
There was also belly dancing. I love how confident these women were as they performed. Each of them had their own personality and even though they each had a different body type they all were so graceful.
Oh Kael, you silly boy. He is always smiling at the camera until just before I click the button. Maybe one day we'll get a good picture together.
Aha -- he was here for the boots! I don't blame him. I'd be here for the boots, too. Everything in this tent was incredible. I lament having such a tiny budget. And no leatherworking skills.
