IN PICTURES – After two years of absence, Bardos finds its carnival

0

At least 200 people met this Saturday in Bardos for the return of the carnival. After several stops, the costumed procession gathered at the wall on the left to judge Zan Pantzar, and impute to him the misfortunes of the year. Pandemic, burglaries, landslides… Everything went up in smoke with the model. At least, we hope so…

“It feels good to find the carnival two years later says Paul Laborde“, Secretary of Bardos Household.”For two years, it’s true that we had missed it, to gather and party” adds Marie, dressed as a bear watcher. Because after the last and traditional dance “from fire to the ass”, all participants were able to extend the evening over a few taloaks and drinks served on the wall on the left.
