The children , adults alike were preparing with lots of excitement but even more work for this year’s celebrations. They all looked beautiful , many nice, interesting costumes , masks quite a few homemade , lots of nice dancing and laughter….everybody hoped this will mark the end of winter , beginning of spring ..till this morning. Even our Irish visitors joined us, as such a celebration is unknown in the English speaking world ..well we came away richer as this tradition was something new for me as well…but a great time was had by all...
