The Kintyre Forum

Some pics and videos from the Renaissance Faire near Houston, Texas. It is every weekend for 8 weeks in October and November. Music, mead, beer, wine flowing, fireworks, performances, people dressed up, people dressed down.. some hardly dressed at all. Very fun festival.

Great pictures, Bobbie!

Nice pics.

I don't get the rennaisance fair thing at all, the have one in Tampa, and a Pirate one, which is basically the same in Clearwater. Apart from the cleavage, I don't understand it.

Sweltered, this one was the best fair, renaissance or otherwise, that I have ever been to, and I've been all over the country. But I'd say the draw might be that it is a cross between halloween, imagination, people, getting a little insight into how people entertained themselves 500 years ago, music, performances, a beautiful setting in tall pines, being able to buy some very cool things, the fact you can get in for $34 for the whole weekend (how cheap is that) and the fact that you are part of a crowd of 32,000 people (Saturday's attendance) and never feeling crowded in very, very pleasant weather. The one in Houston has been going on for 30 years, so it is a permanent village.

It is fun dressing up, and half the crowd has cleavage, whether they are dressed up or not
