Today we had Carnival festivities in town...
Festivities begun with a parade of satiric constructions and masquarade with the first subject Ares God of War as the
leading figure.
After the parade, we had local folclore dancing, and at the end, Ares was hunged up at the center of St. John's square
and put to fire ...
After this we had roasted pig and plenty of wine, dance till late night ...
