Got to watch sheep shearing -
-and black smithing-
-and May Day garlands made by hand with natural materials-
-Archery contests-
- and dancing around the May Pole.
There were many festive spectators...
-who couldn't be cuter. :-)

Loved your posts about the May festival. I didn't realize you could get such vibrant colors from natural dyes. That's great! It's always interesting to learn about life back then. I am however grateful to have not lived back then, I couldn't do without some of my modern amenities!
I love all your may fest photos, its fascinating to take a peek at life in days gone by! we have a medieval fayre in the town during the summer always an interesting & intriguing event. a few years ago i had a stall there and felt grand in my medieval gown, (a great excuse to wear a long flowing gown ) love the garlands!
