I had to walk up and down on the spot after a while. Pins and needles set in. I must have stood there for over two and a half hours in total. Really good fun though, and I loved the fact that, aside from the few marshals at the start, the whole thing was incredibly laid back. No police were present or needed. Paphos did itself proud.

It was indeed a good canival.

It is for the kids to show their skills. Gymnastics, dance, sport, etc.

It really is their day.

The weather was perfect.

If they were in attendance they kept a very low profile, at least at the area of the carnival I was situated in. I didn't see a single one, and they weren't needed.

Dom, that sign that's being carried is something about Constantine dance academy.
Good Pics.

Thanks for the pics, my granddaughter was in the parade but I'm laid up with cellulitis so was unable to get to the parade, amazingly she's in one of the pics! Thanks again.
