Went to a real swordfighting display today. Point was to teach kids more about the reality of the middle ages, and not so much the movies/video game versions. It was pretty cool.
Here my daughter posed with the younger fighter after their show.

Here is some of the replica armor they wore. They have it specially hand made in the Urkrane for them, and is supposed to be a very accurate replica of 14th century German armor.

It was a pretty cool show. Educational, and a bit scary, lol. I liked that they showed the difference between real fighting and movie fighting.

Well, I thought it was interesting anyway, and so did my daughter.
Just got home....now I need to go make dinner!
