DBE Bazaar & Car show

[Zardoz]

Today, (11/7) since we couldn't swing the trip to the Austin Celtic Fest, we went by the Daughters of the British Empire annual Bazaar and British car display. It was a very nice event and I took a few snaps, mostly of the cars....


Here's a little overview of part of the event, it was in the large dining space of the Fluor-Daniel campus near Sugarland, they had many vendors as well as a pub and tea room.


There was a demo by the Houston Scottish Country Dancing group.



And a great bit of piping by the Houston Highlanders.


I meet Her Most Gracious Majesty, Queen Victoria. This nice lady is a Houstonian who portrays Victoria every year at the Dickens festival in Galveston as well as other historic events. She is quite the expert on the Victorian era. We had a brief discussion about the assassination attempt at her Golden Jubilee in 1887.

And some cars;
