In the spirit of my last blog, here is a selfie! Berliner Platz is a large plaza close to us. This week end there is a stage for musical performances, booths like at a carnival for games, food, and kiddie rides.
It's fun to experience something like this that is similar, but also quite different from the States. Behind us are lots of sweets. You'd recognize some, and you'd be surprised that others can contain alcohol! We haven't asked yet if they also deep fry everything from pickles to Twinkies. Will do that.
The reason for all this is that this is FASTNACHT. In English we use the French name Mardi Gras.
Well done with the selfies!! You guys are great!
