Christine at Fasching

Think Mardi Gras.  In Germany.  Cause that is what Fasching is.  A big ole' parade with lots of costumes. And people throwing candy.  Or giving you other food.  Germans like any reason to party.  That's what I've determined.  Even if the temperature is single digits.  Cause it was.  (Drinking Gluhwein afterwards did help a bit.  Cause I was inside and my toes defrosted.)  Today, I attended the Fasching parade in Weil der Stadt, which is a 45 minute S-bahn trip from my apartment.

Interestingly, the town has a fountain of the characters in Fasching:
