It's spring of 2006 which means we are back for the 26th season of Scarborough Renaissance Festival. Like any opening weeknd, it was a little nutty, scrambling all over the place, saying hi to everyone and trying to get a feel for all the new touches. But despite a little fatigue, okay a lot of fatigue, I managed to find a lot of neat moments over the weekend.

The previous description and all these wonderful images are brought to you by Frank Hui. Because of his devotion, I have nothing to add. --Robyn Sotherby

Hard at it at opening gate		She was told to do her business up at the tower	Even her supplications
They're awfully chummy	Talk about a good marketing ploy from Hey Nunnie Nunnie	I think Nobbler said that was his granfather	The new Ivanhoe stage with Scottish Mayhem
East Wind Games, a new shop founded by my friends the Caruthers	The shop has plenty of cool piratical treats	As well as several unusual games to sample	The shop drew all the classes
Some very fine courtiers	Cherry Garcia, Rio Blue and Owain Phyfe play selections from Owain's new CD of latino pieces
