LaWiseWoman writes: I attended the 3rd international Middle Earth Festival (MEF) in Switzerland and I think this might be interesting for the news section. For four days we spent our time in Middle Earth, surrounded by Hobbits, Elves, Dwarves, Wizards, Orcs, Men and other creatures in the lovely scenery of Leuk's castles and vineyards in Switzerland.

I made a report with pictures (I guess about 50 of them) of costumes (the whole fellowship was there) of workshops (archery, swordfighting) and other tidbits.

I am sure the 500 visitors would be delighted to see something about the festival on theonering.net. Some of them traveled for hours from Berlin to be there. [More]
