Here's some photos I took at the gathering. There are many others, but I selected these for the moment.
The village of Bojenci
The local Taxi
The hill we climb to get to our place
Our attempt at a forge. We had minimal equipment and after experimenting, settled for a hair dryer aimed at the fire. It worked OK - sort of.
Then we had to make over kirtles for the women when we saw that their under kirtles were see through with the sun behind them. A bit of a rush on the Saturday as the event was next day. Still, team work and all that.
The leatherworking proved popular, and all who wanted to make a quiver managed to do so.
Firstly we made belts and pouches for the historical event.
Then it was out for a wee bit of retail therapy
Feeding time at the zoo
The rest are shots from our little corner of paradise.
That's it for the moment. Most of the other photos I took were for tutorials at a later stage.
