Mid -Evil Festival at Kusel Castle

What a fun fun day!!! Every year, the town of Kusel throws it's Mid-Evil festival. It was soooo hot out and no shade, but it was a blast. Hope you enjoy the pictures!


I real fox hide turned rug!!!



All I have to say is "Spartacus!!!"



Look at this doll! I heart her!!!



I told her " Lemme take a picture Hailey." And this is what she did! Ha! Gotta love her!



These monks were making the most lovely sounds ever as they were walking by and waving inscense.



Mikey. Jailed! No lie. They use to throw prisoners in without any clothes on! LOL.



My mama dressing like a knight...







Smile/ Your on candid camera!!!



I could have stayed and watched these belly dancers all. day.long. The music was sooooo enchanting. That's really the only word for it and the dancers moved perfectly to the beat....sigh. Ive found a new love.....



The music makers for the belly dancers. Aren't their instruments unique?!?!?!



This girl (under the purple flag) was my favorite. She just knew how to move and she seemed like she really enjoyed dancing.



Gotta get a picture of the Z in at least one shot!!!!



Look at those freaking monstrous huge dogs!!! Z was an awe that a dog could be that big! He asked if he could pet them and the lady said no. Arrrgh...why bring big, cool dogs like that to a festival, knowing the kids will go crazy then say nine (no) to petting them??? It urked me, but I blew it off cuz the lady looked like she was just a normally cranky,unhappy person. Could be wrong, but I didn't care to find out!


This was the summoning of the Witch Trial. It was all in German, so I didn't really understand , well...anything, but it was sooooo much fun watching. Boy, how I take understanding lauangue for granted.





The man who was decided to be a witch must fight for his life.....and freedom. (in the black shirt)



 Here's the slice to the royal guard.....



And here is the guard defeated...the "witch man" has won and is free from persecution!!!



Berg Lichtenburg Castle in Kusel, Germany.
