The big news on the island this week is that Carnival time is approaching!
All the locals are getting ready for the big Mardi Gras celebrations known
locally as ‘Carnaval’. This is beginning of lent and is marked by a large
feast of fancy dress and processions through the town centres!
Meanwhile, the early Spring sunshine continues…. Many locals took part in
a night time walk this week around the Northern village of Santa Agnes,
guided by the light of the full moon, as a celebration of the arrival of
the almond blossom.
The anticipation of Valentine’s Day also has Ibiza’s residents feeling
particularly happy this week….
Lovely picture – I wish I could be there to see it. Looking forward to your Carnaval pics!
Sounds like lots of fun, I have fond memories of the Island but never been there at this time of year. Look forward to seeing you update with pictures and news of how it went. Thanks
Hi! I love this picture too. Very Beautiful.
Here in Brazil we are already waiting for Carnaval 2010. This year (2009) our carnaval was pretty good.
Kisses!
