Five Quirky Pictures from El Carnaval Vegano!
Carnival’s are usually known for their debauchery and glamorous costumes. But, they’re also known to be a time when people’s quirky sides come out. Here are five of the weirdest and funniest costumes/people, who don’t fit in with the feathers and whips, that I saw in at the Carnaval Vegano in the Dominican Republic, February 20th, 2011. Enjoy!
A flinstone showed up!?
Could it be the world’s largest cigar?
First whips, and now snakes…
Naked people are considered to be in costume
And we have Arabs…also considered a costume!
I wrote an earlier blog piece about my experiences getting whipped, and other details here: Whip it Good! – Carnaval Vegano « Travels of a British Born Angry Desi
Fun times! Not sure I’d want to be close to that snake, though. You got some really good shots of the action.
