Our roving pirate reporter MUM the pirate cook has returned from his day at the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire and he filed this report.
Arrr! it was a fine day to revel in all things piratical. The sky was clear and the weather cool and the breeze gentle. Once I got in to the village I made a line for the tap room and the Swashbuckler’s Stage to see the bawdy shows of the Sultry Sirins of Sin and the Rakish Rogues. I had me a plate of fine gourmet cheeses and breads for lunch and sampled the pubs finest Privateers Gold Ale. Then me lads I journeyed over to O’Malley’s Pour House Stage to see the rowdy Celtic band Coyote Run and the magician Sir Isaac Fawlkes. As the weather started getting cool I went over to the Royal Tea Shop and got me a glass of Ice Wine Tea to warm the bones. On me way over to the Globe Stage for closing I stopped at the Pirate’s Treasure Ship and picked up an interesting dagger that also works as a pair of scissors and a pearl-handled strait razor that should help with the whiskers. The finale at the Globe Stage was a raucus party worthy of a pirate, including fire breathing, music performances and dancing. Finally on the way back to the ship i stopped by the wine shop and got a taste of warm spiced winter wine which was a fitting end to the day.
Well thanks for that great report, MUM, sounds like a raucus and rowdy pirate festival as always.
