Carnevale - Adesso A Trieste

We realized that the reach of the carnevale had touched Trieste too when we saw a woman dressed in a cow outfit pushing her baby in a pushchair down the street near Piazza Borsa. We went for a stroll around the city and doubled back to the Piazza Unita on our way home. By this time, the festivities were in full swing! There were mums, dads and kids alike dressed as animals and pirates, princesses and superheroes and streamers and confetti galore.
One thing about the costumes – they certainly confound Trieste’s thriving dog population!
