Travelling back in time

The reason for The Wombat's recent absence has finally been explained - he'd taken a trip across the Atlantic, and while there, attempted to travel back in time (and not just in the sense of having to post archive photos). The best he could manage, however, was a trip to the Maryland Renaissance Festival, where he ate, drank, and made merry with the best of them.

The Wombat tried on a dashing red cloak - if only it came in his size!


The Wombat considered buying a dress for a particular lady-wombat... alas, this also did not come in wombat sizes.


He got to sample some Steak on a Stake, a traditional RF staple! (Although he wasn't sure if curly fries were very authentically medieval.)


He had one of the best seats in the house to watch the Rogues playing some excellent music!


And after the show, The Wombat had an opportunity to meet the bodhran player and lead singer of the Rogues, Nelson Stewart.


Oh, no! Nelson turned out to have a secret taste for Wombat! Help!


Safe from the hungry bodhran player, and having had an otherwise fantastic day, The Wombat flew away on admired a beautiful piece of dragon metalwork.
