| Description: | Carnival Time: Revelry Precedes Season of Fasting. Various Mardi Gras scenes. Exuberant parade with floats and flowers in San Remo, Italy. Lots of women on the floats. Some people seemed to be dressed in costume as Native American Indians. New Orleans parade. Some very odd (unusual, bizarre) costumes, including a man and woman each with a picture frame around their necks, their faces painted so that they look like three-dimensional paintings. Ugly phantom-type mask, the wearer running around trying to scare people. Man makes very funny faces for the camera, scrunching up his mouth, while posing with a woman who wears a mask over her eyes. | |
