Hi teacher. Im Cristina Purizaca. Im talking about the Carnival in Venice: Romantic Carnival.
Of this carnival the most I like is the costumes because the adults and children dress as clowns and use masks too,nobody can recognise them. The atmosphere of the city is magic because this carnival is very mysterious for their narrows streets and their squares.
And finally i like these because is an old carnival of the 18th century. :)
peaceee :P

I prefer the carnival of argentina because is a carnival of dances.

the argentinian carnival is very fantastic and traditional, there are processions and music in the streets.

All the people dance zamba, the argentinian zamba isn't the same as the brazilian samba, this zamba is very slow.

the traditional instruments is a harps and accordions.

this carnival is exciting,

All the carnivals the one that more I like is quebec: snow carnival because is very exciting.
Carnival in this French-Canadian city offers: races with dog-sledges This is very interesting because the people pass it well.
The most graceful is the mascot, the mascot calls Bonhomme.
The mascot calls the attention of all the people, also there competitions to make snow statues, bands, clowns, and lots of snowmen is very exciting.
the most important in the carnival is mascot , music , costumes and dance.
This carnival is beautiful my I like the snow and I amuse myself playing in the snow, visit quebec carnival.

In Peru, this festivity has a special shade. I like The Carnivals because are very entertaining. In some cities, the celebration of the carnivals, you have to wet with water to someone, who goes for the streets. And in provinces like Ayacucho, Cajamarca, Cusco, Jauja, Junín or Puno, the carnivals celebrate with big festivities, corsican, reigns, dances and parades. In Chiclayo, I celebrate it throwing water to my friends, not only the principal day of Carnivals but during the entire month that generally is in February. I get a lot of fun!

Venice Carnival
Venice carnival is the most beautiful celebration in the world.
I love it because of it is full of mystery, charming, elegant, very polite and well known in the world.
People use to prepare their dresses, mask and parties a every the year, because those things are very expensive and people around the world use to visit this city.
Images of people in gorgeous and elaborate costumes and complete with ornate mask.
The idea use mask was that everyone could be anonymous during carnival, because the mask hid everyone’s identities.
It’s a magic carnival!

Hi teacher, I´m talking about Romantic Carnival of Venice
I like romantic carnival, because it fatastic and myterius. The festival brightens the winter months with its colourful costumes and masks. The great advantage of wearing a mask is that nobody is recognizable. Many masks and costumes are based on characters drawn from Italian folklore and history. I've never gone to any carnival, but I love to go to Venice to enjoy the carnival, it would be wonderful
