Carnaval. No rides. No Candy Apples or Dunking Machines

in #carnaval7 years ago (edited)

This is different.

Teams (neighborhoods) practice all year to have the best dancers and wigglers. Plus, you have to have silky flashy pimped out clothes, or lack there of.

It's going on all night, every night, all weekend - all month too. And it's loud. Dates: 3, 4, 10, 11, 12, 13, 17, 18, 20, 24 y 25 of February. More pictures and fun are here.

Back to my post

Murga

I worked my way through a maze of blocked off rodes to get the kids off to their mother's and on the way back, I had to walk a bit. I ran into this group getting ready. That was not my neighborhood (Once), so I kept walking. I am kind of a target. I stick out like a sore thumb, so I like to spend these holidays indoors.

I filmed the sheer volume of it from five blocks away before heading to bed. I am quite camera shy as the person who films things for a catoon sponge, but you can see where I write and vote from at the end if you watched the video.

I use to take the kids to Carnaval when they were small. Children run around with spray cans of foam at each other (yeah, scrubbinb bubbles) and shoot each other in the faces with it. Everyone near that action gets soaked and many have very red eyes. My boys lost their taste for that varierty of fun when they had to rinse for 20 minutes.

I may venture out for more photos tonight, but will likely take a disposable phone.

O wow, i am sure it will be a hell of a lot of fun. I haven't attended anything in my life but i will love to do that

that is one colourful Carnival, wish i could attend the one in Brazil...

Brazil goes a bit more over the top (in my opinion) but don't tell any Argentinos, or they will kill me.

hahahaha, secrets save my friend...am your newest fan now!

It's nude carnival hahahaa

wow sooo cOol have great fun :p I think it's a best festival
Followed!

a beautiful carnival, it's amazing the culture of a region

Is it just me or what? It seems that they'll almost naked in the photo ^_^

Hehe. Me tool Yes, the competition between females is to get the smallest little thing covering the hoo-ha, that won't slip to one side or the other as they dance and kick.

All I can think is that they use some sort of silicone sealant the stick the decorative item of choice in place and let it dry over night.

Stoned on ice cream - that's a good one. "I'm a goofy goober yeah"

Hahahaha hangover for ice cream

Is this nudity festival . Lolz

the best carnivals in the world

Carnaval sounds like it would be fun for the first couple days until people are partied out, lol. You have a great view of all the festivities.

You can even get enough of a good thing too!

Hello @uradick

@uradick,你好,请问如果我有什么不对的地方,请指出来,而不要踩我的帖子,多谢!

Thanks for helping thedailyreview get their rep back. This gesture of kindness earned my vote for NGC.

Partied out for years now. If I were to go, it would be right near the Presidential Palace (the Pink House) where there is a bit more security. Inflation and lawlessness has hit us as we turn into the next Venezuela.

Nice nickname. No I'm not!

I came to show appreciation to you for upvoting my post.
God richly bless you

Carnivals are always fun an there it seems to be more amazing

At least it didn't sound like it's so loud that it disturbing inside the house. It wasn't until you opened the balcony that it got louder. Hopefully you can still sleep.

I slept with ear plugs. Argentina in general is a loud place to live. A ton of freedom - too much in some areas of choices.

That sucks. Earplugs are ok, but I prefer to sleep without them. I've had to deal with neighborhood dogs that barked a lot at night before. It's never fun.

It's going on all night, every night, all weekend - all month too. And it's loud. Dates: 3, 4, 10, 11, 12, 13, 17, 18, 20, 24 y 25 of February.

Wow, I think there are too many days for the Carnavals ... I did not know it

I didn't either until I looked it up. This country has way too many holidays all year long. Favorite restaurants or people you do business with are just gone. Shut down for a month.

Most get back in town at the end of January, just to have a month of Carnaval.

Oh wow, that's quite unproductive ... Very similar to Venezuela, but here the festivities are spread throughout the year, being too many by the way

Everyday? I do at times. But never more than twice in one day. Nobody has sufficient voting power to maintain that many votes for one person. I have actually unfollowed people who trigger my votes several times per day.

well its great .. to know ...

just listening to the music of calypso amuses me

I kind of tune out the music I don't know. There is some I like from here.

that music when you dance you have fun and you release a lot of stress

I love the calypso I love to dance I love the carnivals

In Brazil, I have heard that they are the best carnivals in the world, is that so? @sponge-bob

I have never been to Brazil - the language is not even close to Spanish.

Someday, We will go @sponge-bob

Brazil one of the best carnivals in the world

Children run around with spray cans of foam at each other (yeah, scrubbinb bubbles)

this is a great moment saw children spirit free

I have seen the kids in pain, tears running down their faces and the play through it. My kids, on the other hand, didn't like soap in the eyes.
