Carnival de Rainhas II

April 7, 2013, Sunday

10 AM to 9 PM

 

Carnival de Rainhas literally translates to Carnival of Queens and is in fact held annually in the city of Bethlehem, Brazil a month before Easter. The Carnival is considered as a farewell to negative things, as well as a preparation for the coming of Easter.  This is the 2nd installment of Carnival de Rainhas and this ushers in the summer season with a bang!  It will be held on April 7, 2013, Sunday, from 10:00AM to 9:00PM.

Following last year’s success, with over 60 concessionaires participating then, Carnival de Rainhas continue to provide bazaar goers with tons of choices not only as to the products that they can buy, comprising of food, clothes, make-up, bags, shoes, accessories and household items, but also as to the fun-filled activities they could immerse themselves in, such as various game booths, caricature booths, figurine painting booths, face painting and glitter tattoo booths, and the like.

 

This year’s event will be held in the same vein as last year: only bigger and brighter! Carnival de Rainhas will have over 100 food and non-food concessionaires, several game booths, inflatable castles, and concessionaires offering services geared towards the young and young at heart, such as face painting, balloon twisting, caricature drawing, fortune telling and many more.

 

The event truly promises to be an entertaining and fun way to spend Sunday with family and friends.

Flashback: Eurostar

When the traveling theme park, Eurostar, arrived in Manila, it made a lot of buzz.  Even if I am not into big rides, the buzz made me plan something with friends.  Chai and some of her friends, Racq, TeeDee, Chris, SE and me set one night to go to Euro “carnival.”

SE, TeeDee and Chris were crazy enough to ride the Ranger, while I was the designated photographer of the day.  We had dinner at the venue and of course it was ridiculously priced.  Good thing that they were selling good ice cream.

TeeDee and Chris left early and missed the whole sit on the ground photo op I’ve initiated out of strict boredom of watching everybody else enjoy the ride.
