an italian festival


Watch the video

tuesday was Carnavale in many parts of the world, including Sora, Italy.  We painted our faces (I was a cat... surprise, surprise) and went down to see the festivities.  All sorts of bands, all sorts of costumes (lots of cross-dressing teenage boys), and some crazy floats.  The most impressive thing was the importance of the shaving-cream fights.  It was impossible to keep yourself completely clean because there was some kid lurking behind an unsuspecting grown-up ready to get you.  It was a lot of fun!  The festivities went on into the night... but we went to bed to get ready for a full day of work on Wednesday.
