Ämmedinger Bäägle Hexe – the “Bäägle witches of Emmendingen” are celebrating their 35th year of existence this year and will be parading tonight in the streets of Emmendingen for this anniversary. Of course I’ll be there with my camera…

For those of you not quite familiar with the Carnival traditions here in Southern Germany, the “Alemannische Fastnet”, Wikipedia has an interesting article, which you’ll find here.

Carmival here will reach its climax next week, so as always, this month you will get your fair share of Fastnet pictures 😉
