We love to dress up when we go to historical places or just for fun. It helps the kids feel a part of history instead of a spectator.
So, we loaded up in the van and headed deeper into the desert.
The Renaissance Festival south of Phoenix was a lot of fun. The kids enjoyed the drama and action that was around every corner.
There were some negatives – the low cut dresses, the emphasis on alcohol, and the heat….that blistering Arizona heat.

I do recommend going. We enjoyed it immensely and I feel it was a great learning experience for all of us.
