Fasnet Parade

Yesterday was just another quiet day. Stayed at home not doing much.

Today Laura, Karin and I walked to Bechtoldsweiler, the next town over, with some of the Klett family friends, to a Fasnet parade. Thomas and Julian were at soccer. It is a 2.5km walk in either direction. Fasnet is the Carnival of south west Germany. It is a celebration during winter as a festival to scare away winter and to bring on spring. It was originally something for people to do during the cold winter months, but today is just an annual festival. They parade from town to town. I am pretty sure they were walking from Hechingen to Tübingen. I am not 100% about it so ask Mum for more infomation.


The green and purple makes me think of The Joker. Plus they had very pale white makeup on.


Tomorrow is back to school!
