Fasnacht II

It was a bit of a slow start this morning after a late night. E, N and I had a picnic by the Rhine before re-joining the Fasnacht craziness. We watched the bands parade around the streets of Basel before walking to Münsterplatz to check out some of the giant lanterns from Monday morning. After being attacked by Waggis with confetti we sat and enjoyed a beer in the sunshine.

This evening we went to Marktplatz to watch the brass bands play, accompanied by wine and sausages. After going to a venue to watch an excellent brass band rendition of Lady Gaga’s ‘Bad Romance’ amongst other we found a prime spot on the street to watch more bands, drink beer and dance on the tables.

After the best cheese on toast in Basel we finished off the evening in one of Basel’s cellar bars before heading home around 4am.
