Glory to the Blue Dragon whose victory was celebrated by rains and a welcome weather change on packup day! 😂
What a hot week it has been at Drachenfest Australia 2026! (Literally... a LOT of people got heat stroke and or heat rashes 😅 )
This year it was too hot for me to leave the tent, so sadly I barely took any photos.
The thing about being a merchant at a LARP event immersed in a fantastical realm is that, most of the time between sales, you end up making your own fun while the participants play the game. I never thought I'd be jumping into bard competitions and interested in politics outside of Star Wars, but here we are 😐🤷♀️
Shoutout to my wonderful fellow merchants (including those not pictured) who make the town in the Dragon Lands what it is 😁
And a very special thank you to my friends at Of Science and Swords for helping me get packed in the rain after the automatic brakes in the damn hire car rendered me incapable of lifting more than 4kg 🙃
