Let me take you back in time. Actually let Joris Hentenaar and his crew take you back in time! This old fashioned carnival could have been the stage for a Fellini film, taking place in a small village somewhere in Northern Europe! That was the intention of the organisers of this event, and believe you me, they have succeeded, as you will bear witness in this and my next 2 postings. Three carnival characters are ready to greet you as you step into this make believe setting were you will meet the most bizarre characters. Flame blowers, jugglers, a woman in a fish bowl, a man who breathes through his eyes, just to name a few. Of course the children are dazzled and taking it all in, but the century old merry-go-rounds are their favoured attractions.
