![]() ![]() I’m not sure whether I should have prepared him though, because he suddenly became this proper little gentleman, waiting for our waitress to bring him a full fine dining cutlery set. I knew we would be eating with our hands (there aren’t any medieval utensils to contend with,) but I figured I’d leave that fact as a surprise for Kit. There are vegetarian substitutions and allergy considerations made available, so talk with a rep ahead of time if you have food concerns. The basic meal comprises of garlic bread, tomato bisque soup, a large portion of roasted chicken, sweet buttered corn, herb-basted potatoes, the pastry of the Castle, coffee and two rounds of select beverages. You’re seated based on your ticket purchase (we had VIP seating with the Kings Royalty Package.) Front row seats was definitely a thrill, and Kit immediately began practicing waving his Knight’s banner. I don’t want to give away what happens during the show, but here are a few highlights. Kit was in heaven, and since we were some of the first people to enter the hall, we just let him roam wherever he pleased, with us trailing a few feet behind him, while the floor was still rather empty.Įven now, just thinking back to watching him explore every nook he could find of the hall brings a goofy smile to my face, that kid was cute! Medieval Times, More Than a Dinner & Tournament While the outside has perhaps a somewhat deceiving exterior to the discerning eye of a five year old gamer, the interior on the other hand is very much castle-esque, with crests, a throne, and even a dungeon. Once our picture was taken, we’re lead to the main hall, which is where Kit was absolutely mesmerized, with wide-eyed wonder. He’s an avid Mario Brothers III and Wii Mario Bros player, and is all about saving Princesses Toadstool & Peach, but he wanted to meet the big man of the castle instead, I guess. We left the decision to Kit, and both Jay and I were a bit surprised he chose to take a picture with the King. ![]() Right away, we’re whisked off over to have our photo taken (so be sure to be camera ready right from the start,) with either the Princess or the King. With our tickets in hand, we first received our crowns that indicated which Knight we were going to cheer for. I’m not kidding when I say the magic began right when we walked through the gates. You have a gracious King, His Majesty Don Carlos and a beautiful Princess, his daughter, and are about to be entertained by horsemanship, falconry, and knights eager to showcase their agility and fighting skills, in honor of their home lands. Jay and I always wanted to live in a small island town! We decided, based on our Yellow/Red crowns that we traveled all the way from Mallorca. Who knew, right? Probably the best and quickest flight you’ve ever taken to another country, if only you could remember it!Īnd, in case you forgot, you come from a noble lineage, M’Lady or M’Lord, traveled from one of these distant lands of Spain. ![]() ![]() Once you enter the realm of the Medieval Times castle, you’re now in Spain. Jay and I shared a look and a smile, and directed Kit up the side walk, where we’ll wait for roughly 15 minutes for the doors to open to the inner sanctum of Medieval Times. Kit shakes his head, “That’s not a castle, ChaChi.” “It’s right in front of you buddy, can’t you see it?” I exclaimed, “We’re here!” and Kit eagerly looks around and then asks, “Where’s the castle?” After about 40 minutes traveling along TTC routes to get to the (more commonly known) Exhibition grounds, Jay, Kit and myself get off our last bus and stand in front of the Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament building. ![]()
