Vikings in Eindhoven
Today was the first day of the Viking event in the Eindhoven Historic Open Air Museum. Geert, my neighbour, often goes there as a volunteer and invited us to come have a look. It was nice; lots of reenacting of Vikings fighting the locals and various market stands: weapons, clothes, jewelry, pottery, just to name a few. Also had a very tasty beef stew for lunch.
