Loved Carnival when I went in 2003. Are you going to any costume events?

  No specific events. Just lots of photography. And a couple of modelling sessions booked for that. I’m wandering on my own for s couple of days and join the workshop tomorrow afternoon. It’s my first time at Carnival and enjoying it so far 🙂

    If you are there when the do the angel flight from the top of the tower, I recommend avoiding the crowd. One of our group was so crushed she almost passed out. It was a zoo for a 5 minute act. 🙂
