Fasnacht - Basel Carnival



Last week was the Basel "Fasnacht" (Carnival) we've been telling you about. CRAZY, that's what it is... Confetti, drums, flutes, costumes, parades, and floats to name a few. The streets were blocked, the tram and bus schedules were modified, and to make it more convenient, Basel got about 16 inches of snow (all in one day) two days before it started. So anyway, we've told you about this event several times now, so finally, after all the hype, here are the pictures. Enjoy! See pictures here.
