Hello friends!
We are writing to tell you about the Portuguese Carnival traditions.
Here in Almada, we wear masks and we do a Carnival Parade on Sunday and on Tuesday. This parade is organized by the local schools with the cooperation of the Town Hall.
In Portugal, we call "Domingo Gordo", which means "Fat Sunday" and "Entrudo" that is on Tuesday. On Wednesday, is "Quarta-feira de Cinzas" that's when we bury Carnival.
In other Portuguese villages and towns, there are different and very original traditions.
During these festivities, we play tricks and we have a lot of fun.
You can see same pictures of the parades.
