People Watching - Performers

A couple of weekends ago, we spent a nice day at the "Summer Faire", back at Camlann. For me, the best part was watching the people. The most obvious ones to watch were the folks performing -

We watched a medieval-era play. Here is one of the narrators.

The village smithy - hard at work.

Period-specific singers...

"Master Fletcher" - one of the 'presenters'. 'Got to watch various arrow-shooting contests.


And the amazing "Master Payne" - jongleur extraordinaire!

People Watching - Observers

Those who were observing were just as fun, if not more so to watch than the performers!

Delight!


Well, not so much... Maybe his feet were tired?


The entertained audiences...


The cute, cute women...



And the audience members who also got to participate in the demonstrations were intent and endearing...

People Watching - kids

Of course, the most charming people to watch were the children...

The bulk of them were dressed up in some fashion...

Some period clothing - some just for fun!


Here's an anxious moment watching the magician's show!


Pirates were surprisingly common!



But whatever they were wearing, they were darling to observe
as they were enchanted by the goings-on...
