Maasricht Carnival 2008
Carnival in The Netherlands is a cross between Mardi Gras in New Orleans and Halloween in the States--which provides a backdrop for one heck of a party! This annual celebration in the charming Dutch town of Maastricht packs the streets with elaborately costumed celebrants, fantastic compilations of pop hits and traditional folk music blasting from venues scattered about town, and miles and miles of parade floats. For me, this was a weekend to remember and trip that I'll look forward to repeating sometime in the near future!
