Port Pirate Festival and Wizard World Philly

It's been a while since I've had a chance to take some time to update here.
We've been to a few shows already, and have been spending time up in Indiana for the past week.
First was Wizard World Philly, which was a lot of fun.
Here's a pic of Nigel at a gas station on the way over, Monster is very much needed throughout the summer drives:

I saw a stuffed lion's face there, found it kind of weird, they also had tigers though and that would make an awesome mural for a kid's room, with the tiger's head poking out of tall grass.

Lucy came along with us again, and was incredibly good. People loved her when they got a chance to see her, but most of the time she was so quiet that nobody saw her.
I had a great time meeting a whole bunch of new people again. The show went fairly well, although it was one of the smaller WW shows.
Nigel at the table

Me, with an awesome hat that was given to me, Nigel drew his skull on it

I got to meet Hannah, who was absolutely awesome and who kept Lucy company most of the week-end. She also helped with the booth and got Nigel and me food when we really needed it. So lots of props to Hannah! We wanted to grab dinner with her on Sunday, but sadly did not get a chance to do so because of Lucy not being able to stay in the car due to the heat.
Here we both are

Then Nigel found a big gun and was way too happy about it!


And this pretty much sums up WW Philly:




Then there was Port Pirate Festival, which I will write about probably tomorrow or later on today.
