Faschingsdienstag (Fat Tuesday)

Is always 46 days before Easter Sunday.  With Easter being so late in April, Fasching Dienstag falls this year on March 8th.  In Munich, there are parades, and dressing up is not only accepted, but celebrated!  People take the day off, there is beer flowing early and a good time had by all of the normally buttoned up Muenchners.   Here is a post that I did last year with some good pictures as illustration!

I am so glad that we should be back in Munich for the festivities!
