We thought this said "Severus" so I had to take a picture.
I like the details on the buildings, like this little guy nicely holding the shutter in place.
One of many cute little gardens we saw.
A cute little home.
A cute little squirrel-they were everywhere!

Wood and maybe the home where the wheelwright would have lived?

More workshop.
A pretty covered walkway.
I like the gate.

Work shop!
A gun in progress.
An anvil (I'm not going to lie, I wanted to hit it with a hammer).

I liked how the bricks are secured together on these steps.
Mens shoemaker. Read here for more information on the shoemaker trade.
It smelled like good leather in this shop-and it was nice and cozy.
I asked him how long it took to make a pair of shoes and he told me that it takes more than one person to make a pair of shoes-one person cuts the leather, another does the sewing and another fits it around the form etc. and this team of shoemakers make about 25 pairs a week. Pretty cool!
Read the next entry for more of our first day!
