Medieval Times: A Knight To Remember
The moment you enter a Medieval Times castle you are transported to the 11th century and a time of knights and nobility, surrounded by grand décor and regal characters. I was invited to attend an event at Medieval Times in Buena Park, California to get a behind-the-scenes look at what goes into making Medieval Times the #1 dinner attraction in North America. Hours before the show, the castle was bustling with people preparing for the evening event. We toured the main areas of the castle first where we received an up-close look at the knights and horses practicing their routines in the arena before the show. The team trains daily…

Play :: Time to Embrace Your Inner Rock Star
As the school year draws to a close, school plays and spring musicals are just around the corner. Whether you were Sandy in your high school’s adaptation of Grease or have two left feet and sing off-key (we’re not judging!), Netflix has has some titles that will get you and your kids singing along to some popular show tunes. If you are like most people who grew up watching Grease, you probably know the words to most of the songs from the movie!

Take a Trip Back in Time with The Medieval Times Show
Last week I was contacted by the crew over at The Medieval Times to see if I would like to check out the show in Buena Park. I had not seen the show yet which is surprising since I have lived in Orange County most of my life (minus my college years and traveling). My seven year old was so excited to see real knights on horses fighting and jousting. A brand new show opened up this year and celebrates the California Castle’s 25th anniversary, The Medieval Times 30th anniversary, and its recent $2.5 renovation. We arrived just as the show was about to begin, but I would recommend to come at least an half hour…
