Yesterday we went to another carnevale celebration. This time it was in Malo. We went back in 2015, and had a lot of fun seeing the floats and performers. We knew Connor would have a great time, so we spent our Sunday afternoon there.

Carnival Party in Downtown Vicenza
Yesterday we went downtown to a carnival party {Vivere il Carnevale}. Carnevale is the Italian style of Mardi Gras and is held over the weeks before Lent. It originated in Venice, but is held in towns around Italy until the Tuesday before Lent {when it's largest celebrations are}. We didn't make it to Venice this year, or any other year we have lived here for that matter, but still wanted to take part. We didn't see any fire breathers, acrobatics, or parades like I read about, but we still had fun and made the most of it! There was plenty of music, confetti, and face painting, and Connor had so much fun.
