Fotos of February Festas, Part Two


^ Knight of St. John made of cake!


^ the traditional sweet of Karnival, prinjolata, a kind of fruitcake, sitting on another tradtional sweet, jordan almonds, called perlini


^ Karnival really has nothing to do with Hallowe'en, but that didn't stop these floats from being awesomely haunting!


^ my not-so-great picture of LW's fantastic hand-made Rabbit Queen mask, complete with coffee filter ruff!


^ A detail of a carving in St. John's Co-Cathedral (sorry for the blurriness of the St. John's pics - flash is not allowed)


^An altar in St. John's


^ The gilded wooden pulpit in St. John's



Okay, the photo uploader is unhappy yet again, so further pictures next time!

  1. Great photos! Thanks for sharing! We just had a big festival here too, celebrating Lord Buddha's birth, death, and enlightenment. It's like Christmas time!!
    Can't wait to see you back home this summer. I will be back in a month!
