For those who still remember me from the good old days, you must remember that I am a HUGE fan of carnival.
I make part of a Samba group and we have, every year, a carnival parade in my home town. We work a lot to design all the clothes and to make everything work. It is exhausting but, in the end, it is really rewarding.
This year our topic was about the life of Leonardo da Vinci and you can see in the photo my costume for the parade.
Do you celebrate carnival? What do you think about the picture?

I haven't celebrated Carnival for ages, that festival is mainly targeted to children.
However, the fun and creativity it brings, makes Carnival suitable for adults too.
So you designed and crafted the costume yourselves? Wow, that's pretty awesome!

In Portugal it is definitely not only for children.
I am not the one to design but I participate in the crafting.

@fufurinha Here adults usually work with children and engage them in activities, maybe there area few groups who aren't dependant on children, especially in bigger cities.
