I've never been to one, but I used to try to convince my girlfriends to go with me. None of them were interested and going alone tends to be no fun at all. There also aren't any near by so getting to one when it sets up would be a pain *sigh*

I *could* live vicariously through you if you ever feel like sharing pictures though

I've been once and would LOVE to go again. Got tipsy and ate three giant turkey legs. Rode an elephant. It was a bad ass day.

no but it seems like it would be a lot of fun. maybe when i have money again...

I've only been to one once, but it was so much fun! I would love to go again, but so many years already we want to go and we're just too busy to make it there.

I used to volunteer at the Florida Renaissance Festival when it first started out when I was a teenager (and lived in Ft. Lauderdale). I would have been one of the Washer Wenches if I were of legal age at the time (although I did have the figure for it). I developed a character that has stayed and evolved with me for years ... her latest incarnation is a steampunk witch.

I loved the Ren Faires, and even had a subscription to 'Renaissance' magazine for a period in my 20's.

I really should get back into it; I miss the creative camaraderie of the fests.

not my cup of tea. I do have alot of friends that go all the time.

*gently bumps the post, as it's Faire season again!*

I have never been. I do want to go to one though. I think it would be fun to see it.

I haven't been to one, but my friend has.
