No beads or boobs - just beer & brats


Last weekend we went to the Fasnacht (carnival) parade in Zurich. It was a beautiful sunny day and the parade was perfect - lots of costumes & music. Definitely more family friendly than the traditional mardi gras celebrations - no drunks or nudity. Lukas was dancing to the music and throwing confetti on some of the "monsters"that walked by. It was a test of courage for him because they would then come over to him which was quite scary, but also might give him a candy. Of course, in typical Swiss fashion, the street sweepers came by about 20 minutes after the parade was finished and everything was back to order in less than an hour......
