In my previous "My world" post, i promised to show you how we spent the carnival before the fast.
The carnival (we call it "Triodio) lasts four weeks.
We wear costumes and go to parties on Saturdays and Sundays.
My Japanese girl
My Queen of the sea
My little pirate
In Salamina we make a traditional dessert, the galaktoboureko.
On Friday before Kathari Deftera (Clean Monday), the girls had a party at school.
Every class prepared a small show, just for the students.
That's why i don't have any photos.
But i took a photo before the girls leave the house for the party.
On Sunday, the mayor organized a parade.
Many people, mostly students, participated to this parade with beautiful costumes and unique themes.
We had great time and the girls loved it.

I wish I was there too!
Your girls are beautiful in their disguise! And the parade is great, some of the figures have very funny faces! Thanks for sharing and for your visit.
This is why your blog is so much fun. Adorable images of the girls and the floats just so colourful.
Your photos are just wonderful. I enjoyed seeing the parade!
Oh you have had a fun week, your girls are adorable! That dish looks a little like Baklava?
What a fun day you all had,the dessert looks wonderful
That certainly looks like a fun parade with all those big heads. I would like to be a pirate.
These are so beautiful! Each shot has a story to tell and your daughters are adorable.
i'm glad you were able to post about this. i was at my sickest during carnival time, and what upset me most was that my children didnt enjoy anything outdoors this year due to this. you know how men need their wives with them to go out for the day with the kids, otherwise they can't cope...
thanks for sharing your lovely day
Your pictures are just WONDERFUL! What a colorful event! And I love the girls costumes. Very creative :)
Antugoni: What a fun post with great costumes and floats.
Oooo looked like a very fun and exciting carnival. The fancy dress costume are great. The little girls looked so cute and beautiful in their costume. I want one too. I want to dress up as a chinese vampire...lol.
Those are fabulous shots and your girls look wonderful in their costumes. What a fun post and parade to go to.
what adorable children.
It looked like an interesting parade and your girls were very cute in their costumes.
Love the costumes, the parade and the food. With all those yummy goodies you keep posting, how come everyone in your family is in such good shape? ;-)
What a great community you share. Your girls look like they are having a good time. Any excuse for dressing up is fun.
The dressing up looks like great fun and a great opportunity to create funfilled memories
that looks fantastic. hope the kis had a lovely time dressing up
Your daughters'costumes are so elaborated. Details make the difference.
It seems that fast is a great celebration in your world. It's certainly a fine time to visit your country. Is it the same in all big cities of Greece ? Or it just concerns your own city. In France, we get some cities in the South and Nord of France that organize wonderful Carnival, but every where else, it's just Lent with no celebration.
great shots of carnival...looks similar to what the children were doing in italy when i was there two weeks ago. they dressed in costumes and there were small parades and such...it was so interesting.
have a wonderful rest of the week.
thanks for sharing.

it's very different from original Japanese clothes. but I know it's like Japanese!
Her cloth is very gorgerous more than Japanese. very cute:)
HOW. MUCH. FUN! And your little dressed-up girls are the cutest!
It looks as if everyone is having a wonderful time at the carnival. Your girls are absolutely precious.
