I got sort of tricked into going to the Fairy House Tour in Portsmouth this year. I don't really ever want to be near that many people, like ever. But at least at an event like this there are hordes of cute little girls (and some not so little) wearing fairy wings/costumes. It was interesting to walk through Strawberry Banke (for the first time ever!!) and see these little houses tucked into every garden. Some of them were pretty elaborate and quite cool.
And then of course, Makili's favorite part was the "build your own" station. They provided really terrific natural materials and set you loose. He loved that part. I liked it too, but would have much preferred to have been in the woods collecting my own away from the crowds.
