Event - Carnaval Tongeren 2024
Tongeren looks at its best when the entire city is celebrating.
Carnaval is on the shortlist of highlight events. So eventhough I was still completely exhausted from the wonderful masked ball Ensor Danst in Alden Biesen the night before, had only slept 4 hours and my aching back was killing me, I hopped.. well rather: crawled.. on my electric step so I would not miss the big carnaval parade in the city center.
An image gallery:
This year I stayed on the sidelines instead of jumping into the parade and shoot portraits like last year.
So that's different.
What's also different were the antique Carnaval Giants leading the parade. They had been lost for decades and after being recovered the team from Mario's delicious ice-cream parlor restored them. Kudos to that restauration team!
If I'm feeling better & more alive next year, I'll be once again in the middle of the action.. the way I like it.
