It's hard for the rest of the world to understand that these are the same people!!!<BR/>As a kid living in the Philippines, I remember meeting a German Roman Catholic missionary priest who LOVED Fasching so much that he got everybody in his little island village to celebrate it -- it was a sight to behold!Natureladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09438145213888791865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3711131163299344219.post-63320801341331318462009-02-22T18:55:00.000+01:002009-02-22T18:55:00.000+01:00So, I told my German coworker that you said that G...So, I told my German coworker that you said that Germans love to dress up, but I didn't quite get the concept, and I told her dressing up fancy, not in costumes.

Or is it everywhere?Kristina P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16144488639100871226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3711131163299344219.post-41179504077214740112009-02-22T13:54:00.000+01:002009-02-22T13:54:00.000+01:00Actually, I think you looked like a Fasch-ionista....Actually, I think you looked like a Fasch-ionista.The Dental Mavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04138994376843845343noreply@blogger.com
