This sunday I changed a little bit because I went visiting a friend and they are having carnaval right now. It's a little village near Binche in Belgium and their carnaval is very famous (Carnaval de Binche). This one is some smaller but very traditional and folkloric. You have different groups : paysans, pierrots, ... The last ones are the gilles. So all the groups are throwing small oranges into the spectators. It's very funny. But you have to take care when the gilles come. These are the men and the young men and they throw their oranges quite strongly. And if they don't like you they really bombard you with oranges so the residents are putting some protections in front of their windows
So the photo shows on of my friend who is a gilles when they past me
