I regret that certain matters not yet ready to be revealed have kept me from completing the next entry in the Plopsaland portion of our European Vacation report. I hope to get the needed time soon but, meanwhile, please enjoy a double dose of pictures from that Fairy Ball.
Greetings to the fairy court. They were having an actual wedding, as the original plan to have a play wedding grew beyond the original whimsical bounds.
And here the host explains the rules of things and I think also what the mysterious Court of the Fae mounds were. They were obstacles put up for a BMX racing track that these grounds had been.
And that's what the opening looked like, fairy court and honor guards and all.
They had a small horse, too! With everything moving faster than my camera wanted to photograph. Well, a unicorn.
Slightly better picture of the unicorn, who only hung around a couple hours before going back wherever young unicorns go.
Back at the Moon Grove, a kid does tae kwan do demonstrations.
Some more of her moves.
We went back to the car for something or other and this let me get some pictures of the signs and the ad hoc nature of parking; we were lucky to get there early enough there were normal-ish parking spots available.
Note the Enchanted Fae Wedding signs look different each time you look at them!
The proper entrance to the woods. I can't explain the free-standing sink beside it.
This stand, on a hill bove the Moon Grove, was the stand used to launch BMX bikes into the course.
You can almost picture riding a bicycle extremely into the Moon Grove, can't you?
Trivia: In 1923 the United States Navy announced plans to fly the airship Shenandoah to the North Pole. It was cancelled by President Calvin Coolidge, who judged the plan too dangerous.
