Quarnevalen

This past Saturday Dale and I walked to T-Centralen to run some errands and watch Quarnevalen. Quarnevalen is a parade put on by our employer KTH, The Royal Institute of Technology. It only happens once every three years and different student groups make their floats for the parade in the week or so before the parade. There were all sorts of different floats.
Human powered:
Mousetrap style:
Mobsters (my favorite):
Marching Bands (ok, not a float or a student group but I liked their outfits!):
Mario (probably Dale's favorite):
There were also a lot of politically motivated floats, mostly making fun of the US, but that's no surprise! Quarnevalen calls its self the 'biggest carnival outside Rio'. I don't think that's quite true, but it was pretty neat to see the creativity of the students.
Love Always,
Matilda
