Robin Hood Festival

On Saturday we went to the Robin Hood Festival in Sherwood Forest, near Nottingham.  We had a really good time.  It was like a Renaissance Faire, but actually took place in a country that experienced the Renaissance!  There was food, gift shops, story-telling, archery demonstrations, alchemists, and, of course, a joust.  It was a really fun day!


Griffin & Robin Hood

A very patriotic archery demonstration.
