| I first realized a parade might be happening when some stilt-walkers went by the shop. Can you spy one here? |
 |
| yeah, there... |
 |
| Awesome band. Fun fact... bagpipes = dudelsac. |
 |
| Feel kinda like you live in warcraft here, sometimes... |
 |
| The tumultuous sky and my shop (under the grape vines on the right!) |
 |
| Old city cuteness. |
 |
| More old city cuteness. I waited for a lady with an umbrella for this one... for mom... maybe to paint. |
 |
| I found a hanauer goldsmith! "Smith your own silver ring!" |
 |
| He had a pretty cool tent... |
I unfortunately didn't stay for all the fire-things going on on the other field later that night because 1. I was alone (these things are best enjoyed with one to more people) and 2. I used my raincoat and umbrella twice simply within the confines of the markt, always interspersed with bright sunshine where I would have to pack my coat away again. Not great weather (no wimpy Irene, but still...). I put a few more pictures just of Freinsheim on the claireware blog, btw.

Looks like fun . . . and a cool town! We've only been to one medieval kind of thing (accidentally stumbled upon it near Savannah), but had a blast.
Ohhh, I like this and want to visit this cute medieval "willage"! This seems a lot more fun than a hurricane. I think I might take up the Dudelsac....does NOTA need one??
I think stilts man is having some trouble walking! Cool photos. You do live in some time warp village : )
very good. will comment more later
HAHAHA dudelsac
HEhe... they carried themselves pretty well on the stilts, actually (the blue was the woman and the red was the man. I tink they were planets and the sun... also, that guy had a huge beer belly (no judging) and could still walk stilts so... feel inspired.)
It was incredibly cute and, if I'm here next year, I really probably will take some people to see the firey stuff at night. One of my favorite things really was just following the parade through the "innen-altstadt" and really do go to the claireware blog because I took a few pictures with mom in mind.
and yes... heh... dudelsac. I still giggle everytime (it's like they don't realize how rediculous it sounds!).
