Better festival pictures:

Here's the cute little old man again. In the background, you can get a much better idea of what the whole festival village looked like. There were trees dotting the broad walk down the center. Actually, the village is shaped like a horseshoe, with this center walk very wide, and little Tudor buildings on either side. There were many food vendors, shops with wares, and individual performers like this man, dotted along the way.

The jousting - kind of speaks for itself. Since this was just a little play-acting, I can't imagine what a REAL jousting tourney would have looked like. I think I would have been terrified.
