As I was attempting to make my way toward where I thought<\/strong><\/em> at least one<\/em><\/strong> of my daughters and her friends might be (at the jousting tournament arena) I found myself strangely compelled to stand still and watch in amazement while the Wylde Men prepared, with much jabbering posing teasing heckling and soliloquizing, to jump into a pit of mud.\u00c2\u00a0 I stayed longer than made any sense whatsoever, and consequently, there are pictures.\u00c2\u00a0 Completely ridiculous.\u00c2\u00a0 After that I continued on my way, and the somewhat empty streets bear witness to the hoards of humanity that were sitting in the stands watching the joust, to which I never actually got.\u00c2\u00a0 I also found a weaver and a leather worker creating beautiful things.<\/p>\n
