Dickens Christmas Fair 2005

We went to the Dickens Christmas Fair at the Cow Palace. We had a wonderful time-
You really do feel like you are in the middle of London during the 1700's. The Dickens Christmas Fair is a costumed adventure into the holiday parties of Victorian England. Hundreds of costumed players, lit music halls, pubs, dance parties, can can dancers, vendors hawking their wares, several little shops are filled with Christmas gifts. The food and ales were great. If you want to you can get involved by choosing a Victorian name, and occupation and just let your imagination run wild...... Hope you enjoy the pictures

Happy Christmas......
