Karnival

Karnival in Köln - Germany's Mardi Gras. Words can't begin to describe it. Simply stated, in a land of lots of rules and obedience, the normal rules do not exist during this period. Last Thursday after 11:00 a.m. the ladies took over, as this was their day to rule and take over control. Tradition is that on this day, they cut the ties of all the men. If you try avoid this by not wearing a tie, your shoelaces will get cut. As you can see in the following photos, here I am before going the office in the morning and the after returning home in the evening.
