A Good Time Was Had By All

As I mentioned here, I bought tickets online to Medieval Times. We went on Thursday, January 11th. We had a blast. Basically, you are seated around an arena. You are given cardboard crowns that match the color of your knight. You cheer him on as he participates in games of skill and jousting. There is also a background story that is told in the beginning. Your feast starts out with soup. You drink it out of the bowl, there are no utensils. Along with the soup you are given garlic bread After the soup, there is a roasted half chicken, one pork sparerib, a half of a baked potato and a pastry for dessert. Remember, there are no utensils, so you eat everything by hand. It was really delicious. Much better than what I thought it would be. Here are some pictures. Our knight is the one wearing red and yellow:

Matthew's going with his class in June. Sounds like fun.

Oh it is! He will have fun. They encourage you to cheer your knight and boo the ones who represent the people in the arena across from you. It's all in fun.
