Great Lakes Medieval Faire

Hello! It is I, Baar. Baar got to go to a Medieval Festival! It was so much fun. Baar went with Emily, Joe, and Emily's mom and dad. The picture to the right is of us getting ready to watch one of the shows. The show was a play done with people falling into a mud pit. The people that it was funny but Baar did not. They were hitting each other with long pointy things! Baar does not like violence - him's tail went down and he tried to go help the people fighting. Emily and Joe told him it was just pretend and gave him pets. Baar felt better but was still a little concerned.

Baar also saw a show with a very strange being made from bones called Dead Bob. Baar would have liked to play with Dead Bob and was thinking of "borrowing" a leg. Here is a picture of the little bony talking thing. The people laughed a lot and thought Dead Bob was very fascinating even though him mostly just talked. Baar was distracted by a big grey creature called an elephant. Baar wanted to go visit the elephant but Emily and Joe said no. Baar spent most of the show watching the elephant rather then Dead Bob. People pick strange things to be interested in!

Baar was very popular at the faire. Emily and Joe were surprised and kept telling Baar how good him was. One of Baar's new friends even gave him some turkey to eat! There were other doggies there too. Baar got to visit with them a little bit but not for very long. It was not like the park. Baar got so much attention that him got a little tired. Here is a sleepy Baar taking a break from him's public. Baar does look hansome in him's spider man bandana.

Mikki was supposed to come to but it was too hot for her. Baar hopes she will come next year. Here is a picture of Emily's mom and dad. Emily made the crown her mom is wearing. Emily is so clever but Baar is not sure him likes her plan to make him a costume for next year. Baar will have to think about that some more.

Baar also got to see a show of a person that puts hot buring in his mouth. He was called a fire eater. Here is a picture of him with BBQ Barbie. Baar does not really understand why people would like to do that or why other people would like to watch. But the people all had so much fun that Baar would recommend the Great Lakes Medieval Festival (http://www.medievalfaire.com/) to any of him's blog friends.

Baar had so much fun that him was very tired by the time him got back to the car. Here is one last picture of Baar on the way home.
