We went to Bristol Renaissance Faire this year. I’ve been seeing the outdoor ads for the Faire on our way to Wisconsin and Outlet Mall at Pleasant Prairie. I got our tickets at Walgreen’s, where they were cheaper than the Faire entrance. We dind’t know what to expect. The Faire was spectacular. However, at the end we spent a lot of money. Be prepared to pay more at the rides/activities per person (or children) in cash.

I am a mother of two and a type of person who you would call “Jack of all trades, master of none”. As you might guess from categories, I love my children, reading, sewing, gardening, traveling and cooking. I also work full time so I have to be practical to do all the things I want to do in a 24-hr-day. More About Me
