Switzerland: Basler Fasnacht (Carnival in Basel)
Leave your false nose at home and forget the Wein, Weib und Gesang from the German carnival tradition: the Basler Fasnacht has its own rules. In Basel no singalongs and dancing, but Europe's most amazing manner to chase the winter away. 72 hours long. From the 2nd till the 4th of March 2009.

'Close to tears.'
Tuesday is children's carnival during the Basler Fasnacht. Then the children rule and the parents obey. But it is tiring to be the boss and to play and play and play. So at the end tears are never far. Photo Paul Smit.
