The weather gods love Carnival

Yesterday it was raining cats and dogs well into the late hours.  But today, the weather held up !

                               The Kings in Waiting for their turn to be shown in the parade today.




More impressions of today can be found in this Flickr set.

City Under Siege

As the city of Aalst is preparing for 3 days of Carnival celebrations, it looks and feels now like the city is under siege.

                                                         Photo taken today in the city center 


As from tomorrow though, parades, music, thousands of people and lots of alcohol.
