🎭 Ye Olde Renaissance Faire Shenanigans (Featuring a Turkey Leg and a Flat Tire)

Hear ye, hear ye!

Today, we donned our finest modern garb (hoodies and shades) and set forth on noble e-steeds (our e-bikes) to the fabled land of… the Washington Midsummer Renaissance Faire.

From the moment we passed through the Gates of Merriwick, we were whisked back to an era of gallant knights, melodic horns, and deeply concerning signage involving dragon spit.

Here are just a few of our most noble (and hilarious) adventures:

  • 🎺 We trumpeted our arrival with the help of some very enthusiastic horn-blowers.
  • 🏹 We practiced archery with actual longbows (our aim was, shall we say, medieval at best).
  • πŸ” We were nearly arrested for crimes such as β€œPocket Chickens” and β€œMutual Mastication.”
  • βš”οΈ We witnessed jousting, sword fights, and enjoyed a Viking-sized turkey leg that honestly deserved its own zip code.
  • πŸ§šβ€β™‚οΈ We shopped for fuzzy rainbow gremlins, dodged dragons in disguise, and tried not to spill our mead.
  • πŸ“Έ And of course… we took approximately 37 selfies in front of signs, tents, and meats-on-sticks.

But alas, the journey home was not without peril. Just as we were triumphantly pedaling back into the modern realm… my noble e-bike suffered a tragic flat tire. πŸ˜©πŸ›ž

All in all, a royally ridiculous day.
8/10 would joust again.
