      Neraksnikl,

      So I’ve learned.  We are RenVirgins, so forgive our ignorance.  We’ve learned so much about the culture and the people over the past couple of weeks.  We really enjoyed ourselves and have learned all sorts of new things about the “lingo” and more.  

      We have much yet to learn.  From now on we will refer to it as “garb” haha thanks for the clarification.

      We went camping all weekend long and we had a blast!  We’ll be doing yet another “behind the scenes style post” coming soon.  

      What was your favorite thing you’ve experienced at the Sherwood Forest Faire Ginette?

      Hi, Bobbi! It was actually this past weekend that we were at Sherwood (March 2-4th). I met someone named Bobbi around a clan campfire…I wonder if it was you? 

      We’re planning to return on March 17th. Thanks for stopping by and commenting!

    I never got to see the baby pig, Brittany!  He was already gone.  However, you’re right, the Petting Zoo was awesome. 😀

      We got to see him again when we went back for the weekend. But a really funny thing happened. There was this little boy who was sticking his hands through the fence and teasing him…and the baby pig bit him! I think I laughed outloud…I’m bad.
