We'll see the
Medieval
Festival. You can enjoy seeing and hearing Medieval knights, music,
dance, jesters and other performances. Some food will be available in
the park, but it's fairly expensive, so you can also bring your own
snacks.
Weather
permitting, we're meeting at the southern entrance to Fort Tryon
Park: Take the A train to 190th Street. There may be an exit nearer the
front of the uptown train that is closer to our meeting place. Or you
can take the #4 or #98 bus. Get off or walk
to where Fort Washington Avenue and Cabrini Boulevard meet the entrance to the park at a
traffic circle, just where it becomes Margaret Corbin Drive. See
map.
