Mayfest
Yesterday was Mayfest in Winchester, a celebration of traditional and contemporary music, dance and song. In the High Street they had a couple of Morris Dancing groups. I think of it as a very traditional English dance, although it's not something I've ever done, nor anyone I know of! There were some other Morris Dancers I featured on the blog back in December 2010. As you can see from the sky it's been glorious weather here most of the week!

ReplyDeleteI loved the morris dancers in Winchester, and the folk dancers and singers. It was a really lively time, but not one with any trouble.
ReplyDeleteAhh, look at the sun in this photo, we are in July now with very little sign of it!
