The NorCal Ren. Faire's Celtic Weekend [Oct. 2010]

This video is of the first Ren Faire I've EVER attended. I've been waiting to go for so many years of my life, and finally I get to attend with Melissa, Bently, Noah, and Patrick! We drove an hour (from Monterey) up to Casa de Fruta, Hollister, for The Northern California Renaissance Faire for the Celtic Weekend. This is what we saw on October 9th, 2010, while we were in costume, watching all the vendors be in character.

Very cool.  How did you enjoy yourself? Any tips for people new to Ren Faire?

@AntennaGirl

It was my first time actually. It was incredible, I wanted to go all weekend but the whole ticket thing was a bit much. Even though it was only $25, when you triple that, yea. But as for tips...DRESS UP..don't be shy to go all out. I didn't because I was new to it, but I wish I had. I mean, I have belly dance stuff galore, I should have at least worn a belt :)

Yeah, it was my first time going as well, but I KNEW I HAD to dress up--- that's part of the joy of it! My friend Melissa went in bellydancing garb, and she looked amazing. Just corset up, fluff up your breasts and grab a pewter mug! Voila! I hope you go again and DRESS UP!

That one hypnosis guy (the guy with all the kisses) was SOOOOO creepy.

I love the blinks at 0:48.

Strawberry was probably not the best, but I don't think any of us got it.

This is a great AntennaGirl video, especially since I hardly appear in it! Less to listen to my awful, grating voice!

The ren faire was really fun with everyone, and I'm glad that I got a chance to go with a pro (read: whore) like Bentley.

That looks like a lotta fun. I still haven't gone to Ren Faire! But I don't wanna go alone!

Nice, wet and drippy Noah stache!

Some of those people can pull off some really awesome tricks, like the guy that juggles while eating an apple!

It looks like you all had a good time. I think that the music goes really well with the video.
