Whitsuntide in Copenhagen is Carneval Time

For 25 years, this weekend has been Carneval-weekend here in Copenhagen. A long weekend, often sunny (as this year) and in Parken there are many colourful costumes, fantastic music, good dancers and everybody having a good time. The summer is here at last, so this young woman didn't have to freeze - after all, she is not wearing anything that keeps her warm. She was a member of a group from Sweden. Somewhere along the line, her ancestors probably came from Brazil, who knows. It was enjoyable to walk through the park, a colourful day.
