Lining up for the "Youth Parade"

... everyone is in festival mood ...

... "I'm bored ..."





... where did you get that tash? ...






... a hunter then ...









... the bells, the bells ...





... your turn soon ...






































... not just boys under those masks ...




























... imagine the panic in England ...


... the traditional loaf ...









... lovely lollies ...



... souvenirs ... 

... of course - a balloon ...



... hot snacks on a cold day ...




... and still they arrive ...

... a view from my window ...





... each village has its own routine portraying
the end of winter and praying for spring ...


The Torchlight Parade...

... an important part of village tradition ...

... takes place around the 15th January ...





... ending in front of the Palace of Culture ...


... the opening speeches are relayed on the big screen ...


... National TV on hand...

... a satellite link to the nation


The firework display takes me by surprise ...








The evening concert begins in the centre - performances from near and far ...






























... a flavour of the event so far.
