I forgot about this wild and crazy event. Great photos!
ReplyDeleteGood Lord, that's got to be the weirdest parade I've ever seen. What a strange and wonderful collections of goofballs, machines, pots and pans, and costumes! Amazing. The weather looks good. But is there a theme to this parade or does everyone do whatever they wish to do? I'll bet it's fun to watch and it looks like some folks get right in there and participate. The blackface wouldn't go well over here, though.
ReplyDeleteYes, the parade has a theme: The Wedding of the "Egetmann". All partecipants are guests, but they can't do what they wish to do, they have to follow a precise protocol. You can find the main characters here:

ReplyDeleteEach and every photo here just blows my mind! But then, I live in a country with no such tradition as this. Just fascinating!
