RE: Nice Carnival: A Different Sort of Take

in Worldmappin3 years ago

Wow! Those are some really nice shots!

In those difficult times it is often those things that can make us happy - but to be honest, I almost forgot, that it is carnival season. Here we have not a lot of big celebrations going on, since it isn't very common. In other parts of my country it is more common to celebrate it, but I am not sure, if there are big celebrations because of covid. And also people don't feel like celebrating with the war going on.

Have a great day!

Cheers,

Yeah that makes sense. Most of the Carnival events in France started a few weeks before all the turmoil started between Ukrain and Russia.

What country are you in?

Yeah, I can imagine. I am not a carnival person to be honest, so I was not going to a lot of celebrations even before covid.

I live in Germany. We do have a lot of carinval events usually around the Rhine (Western parts close to France, Belgium and Netherlands) and in South Germany - I am not sure, if they also have it in the North or East.

I see. Yeah I heard that Germany celebrated Carnival in some parts. Yeah with covid and everything else happening, I'm sure it's a different event this year than usual.

Yes, in some parts it is quite big. But I guess it still suffers from th covid restrictions, etc. Maybe next year will be better!

Maybe next year will be better!

I feel like we all have been saying that for several years now. Lol
I had high hopes for 2022 but so far its not looking good.
