Sarasota Medieval Fair

The Sarasota medieval Fair held at the Sarasota Show grounds in Florida. The 2012 show had an Irish theme, mainly for the human combat chess, but the costumes and other events including the jousting knights, belly dancers and fairies (see my other gallery for the fairies) are all excellent and good fun.
