In short: had a wonderful time.
After leaving at Far Too Early O'Clock and getting a bit lost in the back roads of the Eastern Townships, I arrived on-site with Jeanne and Xavier at about 11:00. A few highlights:
- Buying a pound of cookies and sharing it with my friends. (Aoife, I want your recipe for the cranberry-white chocolate ones!)
- Attending Liam's "favourite SCA songs" class. Now I'm gonna have to make up a list like that for myself. (Liam, I want the Calontiri teaching CDs. Heck, bring it to me on a USB key sometime and tell me who to send the money to.)
- Being part of the "bardic improv amoeba," aka "the bardic gong show." Did a number of very successful games of "pass the tale," and one not-so-successful one. Note to self: never ask King Konrad to choose the subject of the story. (Konrad: "Yeah, tell me a story about an obsessive-compulsive dwarf and a hyperactive, talking carrot." Bards: "...")
- Dipping fruits in a chocolate fountain.
- Hugs. Many, many hugs.
Bonus: One of the easiest border crossings I've ever experienced, in both directions. Gotta love teeny-tiny border crossings.
And that's it for now. Time for much sleep.
