Karnival Tan-Nadur 2011 Photos..

Well what a success it was. The photos are up on facebook here: http://www.facebook.com/ (if you want to tag/comment on the photos please email michelle@shellsshots.com with your facebook email address or ID so I can add you… sorry you won’t be able to add/search on me directly because of problems with stalkers, but I should be able to add you.)

The evening was fun to say the least, many people in all sorts of outfits, all having fun. One thing that was very surprising to me, is many were drunk and yet there was no trouble, and only a few were silly. One guy and his poor girlfriend had passed out and was sitting in his own vomit, his girlfriend very obviously fed up, both Jez and I agreed if he had been our partner it would have been the last night he dated us. We both agreed getting drunk is ok, getting drunk in public is ok, getting so drunk you pass out in your own vomit in public is a big no-no.

On the funny side, I received one comment which surprised me and made me laugh no end… “Are you Marilyn Manson?” one girl asked…! I mean, come on are you kidding me? Here’s some photos of Marilyn Manson..

The local Goth/Alternative group was great though mostly camera shy, and I’m looking forward to partying and spending time with them.

Nadur Carnival (Karnival Tan-Nadur) this weekened!

Well after the events of the last 6 months, I figure it’s about time I started blogging again, so this weekend my weekend is planned. Friday night will be the ‘usual’ drinks with friends, but Saturday I’ll be off to see the Karnival Tan-Nadur on the island of Gozo. This is a once a year event where a ‘spontaneous carnival’ happens after sunset and coincides each year with the main Maltese Carnival.

The event is well known for it’s outrageous costumes from ‘Alternative’ to ‘Cross-dressing’ and regularly features the grotesque and macarbre. It is being held on the 4th to the 8th of March (the five days preceding lent) but locals will tell you Saturday and Sunday are the days to go as the weekdays many are at work and therefore the events are small by comparion. In 2005 the carnival was crowned the world carnival capital due to it attracting the most carnival digitaries in the world all at the same time.

Needless to say apart from partying and enjoying myself, the camera will be coming with me and a whole load of spare batteries (and the chargers as they can charge in the car.) So watch this space for the photos next week! 😉
