I met a pirate!

I went to the Renaissance Festival and met a pirate! From my experience, pirates are actually really quite nice… they’re just a bit difficult to shake hands.

If you’ve never been to a Renaissance faire, you should definitely check it out at least once. Really, I don’t know what pirates have to do with the renaissance, but they’re walking around with the maids and men in tights all the same. At the faire in Larksper, Colorado you can watching jousting, eat a turkey leg, meet the royal court and browse through the hand made markets. Again, no penguins, but I think we’d look fabulous with all that amour!

Here’s what I would look like if I were a pirate, I think I’m rather dashing and daring.
