The aluminum foil robots were my very favorite part.
My camera was doing stupid things, so I missed out on pictures of all the Maid Marians and Robinhoods, a slew of campaigning politicians, way too many dentists, the unicycling club, and the Larpers. (For those of you who aren't familiar with the term LARP, I suggest you Google it. Seriously, it's surreal in so many ways.)
