Another one of those things you forget, when you are only blogging here and there - in Atlanta, we actually did the Ren Faire there. Turns out it is one of the biggest ones in the US (huh??) even larger than the LA one that we try to hit. They have one huge advantage that the fair grounds are permanent, even though they only run the fair for 4 months out of the year. Thus the structures are all wood and stone - built to last, instead of built to transport. Thus, they have structures like ships, large seating areas for the jousting, and many different artisans (glass blowing and leading, smithies, etc) which need more space.
Was a very nice faire, other than it did start raining towards the end. We had all sorts of the requisite food stuffs - Turkey leg, Pickle, Fried Mac n Cheese nuggets, Fish and Chips, Ale, Weiner, et al... Was warm, even with the rain, and other than the probable diliterious effects to all of our otherwise ill health, a good time had by all!
