Harini kak ton free sket so boleh la update blog yg dh berkurun tak update ni. Cite ni pasal CARNAVAL bulan lps bukan sahaja dekat Guadeloupe tp mostly Caribbean islands. 

Ok, kak ton google history sket sbb aku pun tak tau carnaval ni celebrate apa. Celebration basically sebulan in February pastu end of the month 2 hari public holiday sambut besar-besaran gitu. So sebulan ni, semua org in festive mood, nk Christmas pun tak camni feeling dia. Every weekend, different city host a carnaval. Traffic jammed toksah cerita la, tu blom lagi budak2 bukak tol create jammed smpai 12km. Sentap je sbb weekend kita nk pegi beach pastu sangkut jammed, jalan plak takde jln lain, tu je la satu2nye jln nk ke pantai tu.

Carnival (see other spellings and names) is a Western Christian festive season that occurs before the liturgical season of Lent.^[2] The main events typically occur during February or early March, during the period historically known as Shrovetide (or Pre-Lent). Carnival typically involves a public celebration and/or parade combining some elements of a circus, masks, and a public street party. People wear masks and costumes during many such celebrations, allowing them to lose their everyday individuality and experience a heightened sense of social unity.^[3] Excessive consumption of alcohol,^[4]meat, and other foods proscribed during Lent is extremely common. Other common features of carnival include mock battles such as food fights; social satire and mockery of authorities; the grotesque body displaying exaggerated features, especially large noses, bellies, mouths, and phalli, or elements of animal bodies; abusive language and degrading acts; depictions of disease and gleeful death; and a general reversal of everyday rules and norms

Carnaval yg kak ton n laki pegi adalah carnaval yg dekat umah kitaorg ni, tak yah bawak kete, jalan kaki je. Umat manusia tak tau la nk cakap, dh siap picnic tepi jalan. Kalau boleh bawak bantal n tilam confirm bawak. Rata2, org bawak kerusi lipat tu sbb carnaval ni start dr kol 3 petang smpai kesubuh esok hari. lebih kurang la sbb kak ton dh tido pun dgr dumdam2 bunyi gendang dipalu. Masa carnaval dekat umah kak ton ni, kira dh besar gak la kot sbb dh pakai costume, yg besar masa cuti Mardi Gras tu kitaorg tak pi sbb tak kuasa nk hadap traffic. Kebetulan pulak cuti kan, masa tu la kitaorg pegi La Desirade, adik bongsu pulau Guadeloupe. 

Penonton dikiri-kanan jalan. Yg parking kete kat sini ko tggu la smpai jln bukak baru boleh balik. kete tak kena calar pun dh cukup baik dah. 

Yg lelaki keje dia main musical instrument, yg pompuan joget la. 

Pesen baju ada macam2 tp kak ton tak amik gambar byk sbb diaorg dok berjalan kan, gambar tak cantik. 

Carnaval ni tak terhad kepada org dewasa, bdk2 kecik pun join jugak. Biasanye hari jumaat diaorg buat parade utk bdk2 ni. Sekolah will participate anto anak murid dia kinja. Kak ton tak tgk yg bdk2 ni tp cukup la dgr cite jalan pun traffic jammed jugak. So tu je la pengalaman first kak ton tgk carnaval. Thn dpn tak kuasa nk tgk dh kot sbb aku "Jom Heboh" Sure Heboh" pun aku xpernah pegi, tak kuasa, maklum la dh tua.
