Cave Gladium 2008

It’s time to move out again! Furth im Wald was calling for their medieval festival which took place this weekend – and I have to say, it was amazing! 140 groups showed up for reenactment. In other words – they had to expand the area another time. Here’s a short review of the highlights every day:

Wednesday:

• Meeting in munic with the ‘Erben der Drachen’ group
• Journey to the festival place
• Setting up the tents in the dark

Thursday:

• Being waked by cannons
• Discovery of the toilets for reenactors
• Walking around recognizing that the area is huge

Friday:

• Securing the tents – it’s raining cats and dogs
• Getting wet at the fireside
• Shopping

Saturday:

• Drying equipment
• Bow training
• Fight training

Sunday:

• Sparring
• Shopping
• Take-down

Monday:

• Having a good night’s rest
• Unloading of the car

Last but not least some words regarding the organizational work: You did a great job guys! It was ingenious!
