Happy Halloween!



Little girls dressed up as fairies during the midsummer festival, in the park across the street from the citadel. There were lots of fairy wings, masks and funny wigs for reasons I didn't quite catch, and also about a million kids pedalling determindly around on various tiny bikes, vespas, cyclos (!) and cars, alongside skateboarding and rollerblading teenagers wearing rabbit ears and pink spiky wigs.

Some teenagers were better at rollerblading than others.

Midsummer Lanterns



Step one: set fire to your lantern.





I wish I had more pictures of these lanterns - there were hundreds of them floating up in the sky during the Midsummer festival at the beginning of last month and you could see them flickering and drifting in the sky everywhere you went.
