Back in time...

Our study of the Middle Ages was brought to life at Medievel Times last night. We knew that Spanish Andalusians were the chosen mount for knights and royalty since the 11th century but watching them in a quadrille made it apparent why. They are so strong and brave yet even tempered and graceful.
Our walk through the village brought us to a blacksmith that showed us how he makes chainmail and swords. We traveled further and learned more then we wanted to know about dungeons. The show was great fun. The knights galloped around doing great things while we cheered and got sloppy eating chicken with our fingers. Leah and Ashley were so medievel acting that we had to move down the bench to avoid dirty looks. We each had our favorite knights. This is Ashley's and the other is mine.
