Hi people ! We know that you all desperately want to hear some news about our Carnival event " FROM MASK till DOWN" from 03(Friday)-06(Monday) March in RIJEKA , specially you who areaccepted ! ( I received one funny letter where person asked me where is Rijeka ?? SO for those who doesn't know where is Rijeka , take a map and try to find black dot on Croatian North-West sea side , it is near Trieste in Italy...) First, to resume from the last time : Our carnival in Rijeka is International Carnival that is also placed in World Carnival Calendar .... WHy? Because it's great ! This year Aegee members will have a chance to feel how it is "hard" to survive the last weekend of Carnival period in our region. Carnival period ends with a parade in the centre of the town. ( You know, where people of all age in their masked groups walk through the streets in the centaur of the town ) . We'll provide 3 meals on Saturday and Sunday and dinner on Friday( when you all should be here ) and breakfast on Monday-departure day ! Fee is 60 DM ! What is new ? First exams period will end very soon :-)) NExt news is program (last time it was up side down): **03.03 FRIDAY 11-16 Arrival of participants 17 Few words of welcome from our Mayor 18-19:30 Dinner 21-02 Welcome party **04.03 SATURDAY 8:30 Getting up 9:30 Breakfast 10:30 Rijeka Sight seeing 12:30 We are going to Opatija , one beautiful tourist place on sea ! 13:30 LUnch in one of the Opatija resturants 15:00 Opatija sight seeing 17:00 Coming back to our head-quarters 18:00 Dinner 19:00 Put your masks on! Next direction is Kraljevica town (During Carnival period in our region every weekend there are parties at different places and this town is the best place for it . This will be also special since this will be the last Carnival party in our region !) 21:30 Kraljevica 04:00 Coming back :-)) NOTE : For Saturday party you should bring your own mask because for non-masked people entrance costs 10 DM, and for this party you don't have to bring complicated mask .Without mask you would also have stupid feeling because of the atmosphere! ) **SUNDAY ( I hope that you people won't go to "hi" on Saturday cause it might be bloody Sunday for you ) 9:00 Awake up !! 10:00 Breakfast ! 12:00 we are putting our UNIQUE SIMPSON'S mask 13:00 Paaaarade begins (later,down, I wrote what is going on in parade ) *******Let's show AEGEE to the crowd !!! ******* ( Well, crowd is quite big around 100000 people ) -Lunch -parade should end around 20 h ,but that is not the end ! 20:00 Dinner 21:00 Last destination is a HUGE tent where all masked groups have fun ------>>>> TILL DAWN <<<<-------- - NOTE : For parade on Sunday WE are MAKING Simpson's mask for you all !! **MONDAY 9:00Breakfast & collecting energy to go home ! -And when you find yourself in normal state we'll let you go .... THen news about Sunday .... Among the other ideas we decided to be the Simpson's (don't ask why?) and the others from that cartoon, for this parade(ceremony) on Sunday . We'll be ONE of the 150 different groups in the parade with ,100.000 people,spectators around us .We'll walk through the centre of the city, main street, harbour (basically in the circle :-). We rented some old car which will be decorated with some cartoon scene (and it will be useful for taking exhausted Aegean's . Also it will be used for "Drink " storage to help us all in "hard " parade walking . Then some loud music on it...... ) . Furthermore CArnival organisers will give us one beautiful meal, dish "beams and cabbage" + wine for worming up (This was last year ) so we will have enough energy for parade ... As we said last time, parade is the hottest spot and the best part of our event . You'll see why ! "Only" not so good news is that Sleeping bags are needed ! Due to mask costs and prices for accommodation with beds we decided to make masks and rent a vehicle for the parade .(Since Aegee members have never been in parade, they were usually just watching the ceremony, we wanted to make something different ) ! You we'll sleep in one elementary school near town centre! Although we are full for now we decided to find some more places (maybe 5 to 10) .
