It's dead and I'm bored

Ask me anything. It's my last "down" day until inventory and I need to pass the time...

I have always wanted to ask this. There is also another poster that is into Renascence fairs and I have meant to ask her that. What do you do when you go to one and why do you find it fun?

At first, I went and saw shows and did some shopping. I have become more immersed in the community and now, I go to see my friends and hang out. My best friends I met through the renfaires.
The renfaire community are a completely different culture. I get dressed up in a chemise, corset, and skirt and go to play with my best friend. Depending on the faire, will depend on what we do. For the one that is running right now, we go to certain shows because the performers are our friends. In fact, we are friends with about 75% of the people that work there. We are both very outgoing and have no issues getting up and dancing during songs, getting pulled into performances, etc. We have been confused for cast many times. Renfaire is our play time. We forget about the worries of the modern day world. We get to go and have fun in the woods, act like fools, play dress up, and no one cares. We get to be ourselves.
