Hello and welcome once again,
This time around I am going to talk a little bit about carnival that is happening in Rijeka, Croatia. If you never visited before and you find your self in the area in February/ March for sure this is a once in the year opportunity to see something amazing. I have been few times on the mission with my camera to capture the spirit of carnival on the streets of Rijeka. Your eyes will feast on the color of amazing costumes and the ears will be overwhelmed with loud sounds. I would recommend to bring few things with you. First warm clothing. For sure check the temperature on the web before you go as with this global worming you never know any more. Second, your camera and smile on your face as the atmosphere is warm, welcoming and full of energy.
Here is the link for the Rijeka Carnival so you can check for your self in a little bit more details.

The program has many things and the web will give you all the info you need, just follow the link above, but where you want to be is the main parade that is happening on the street. International Carnival Parade.

The party on the street is going on the whole day and to participate and enjoy just walk and follow everybody else, smile, take pictures, sing, dance and then smile a little bit more. Once done, do it all over again.
Here are some pictures I took few years back, I hope you will enjoy them.
