Robots!

Over the weekend we went to an awesome fair in northern California. This was all my husband and my son's plan, I was just going as a non-argumentative being, not expecting much fun so I took my book, in the hopes to find a corner and read.
Well, I have to say, I had so much fun!
I bumped into an old flame while my husband was busy.... the moment I heard that squeaky voice and the One blue eye, blinking at me, I knew I was still in love LoL


As we kept walking I saw another cool robot, from "Lost in space"; a fan made it identical to the original! It had a player on the side with music from the show, it was fun to see.


They had all kinds of robots for fun, work, decor, goofiness, workshops to learn how to make them, books and tons of information! On the other side they had more inventions but for the organic/nature/recyclables/green lovers. Oh! And Steam-punk! There was a whole area full of Steam-punk: cars, jewelry, acting, music, and the weirdest most fabulous machine-thingies I ever saw! I loved all the Victorian/crazy outfits.

Which reminded me of a tiny little robot I have since I was 8 years old. Imagine, a very old treasure of mine ;o) I went to look for it when we came back, and here's his pictures, isn't he a cutie?

And just when I thought I had seen it all... there was the Craft Magazine area! yaay! isles of yarn, fabric, dolls, hats, beads, T-shirts... all kinds of classes (ugh, I couldn't take one single class! but watched bunch of demos)

Adam, from my kids favorite show Myth-Busters, was there too! They had the best time listening to the behind the scenes chat.
Well, I better hit "publish" now!
