It's hard to believe it's been almost two years since our last visit to Medieval Times. I can still remember just how excited my daughter got when she received a flower from one of the knights. Such a precious memory. We all had such a good time that we are gearing up to go again. It makes for a nice little weekend getaway for us since it's about a two hour drive from home. In the meantime while you wait to hear all about our trip I have some some fun facts about Medieval Times to share with you as well as a hot discount offer.
