Piercings and Medieval Fair

This is a picture of Akemi when she came home with her ears pierced about a month ago.  Every morning and night since then Silvina has been diligently rotating the studs, and Akemi has been equally diligent in allowing her to do it with little fuss.  Well, actually at the start there was some fuss, but now no fuss.

Last weekend we went to a Medieval Fair at the ROM.  We thought we would drop by at the Fair, and then move on to the dinosaur bones and minerals, but Akemi was captivated by the Fair for the whole time - seeing the same cycle of demonstrations until the end of the day.  They had stations to make tiaras, write with a quill, and design a coat of arms.  The quill she was writing with was so long that it tickled the ear of the girl beside her.

The demonstrations were pretty interesting - the first time around.  They had dancing, hunting animals, and old weapons.  She even had the chance to shoot a real bow and arrow.
