The Ambrosian Carnival in Milano is the
longest Carnival in Italy.
This Carnival
ends the first Saturday of Lent. Today many floats and Milanese
characters parading to Piazza del Duomo.
The Ambrosian Carnival, which is held
in honor of Bishop Ambrose, has a story behind it. Bishop Ambrose
participated in a pilgrimage and announced his return to Milan to
celebrate the first rites of Lent in the city. He however didn't come
back on time. The Milanese kept on waiting for him and extended the
date of the celebrations until he arrived. In the process they even
delayed the rite of the Ash in the Archdiocese of Milan which is held
the first Sunday of Lent. The tradition of Ambrosian Carnival thus
begun in honor of Bishop Ambrose.
This week schools are only
open until Wednesday or Thursday
We celebrated our Carnival last Thursday in our school.

Here we finishes also Carnivals but we are already thinking of the next festival we celebrate at the school. That is Father's day(19th of March), and after that 10 days for Easter holidays.
Thanks Pedro!
No... I'm a fan of GIMP. Do you know it?
I know Glogster and other online tools, they are very nice.
With GIMP I can't do interactive posters but creativity really has no limits.
This poster is very simple, the software potential are enormous.
