  • The “Trapalhão” Parade (slapstick parade), held on Shrove Tuesday can be classified as a satirical parade, inspired by the local cultural heritage. This parade is inspired by the spontaneous parade that originally took place at Rua da Carreira, around the first half of the XX century. The participants’ creativity knows no boundaries and spans from social and political satire, to traditional themes, or simple character disguise.
    This parade is open to all, either locals or tourists, individually or in groups, a parade ranked in four different categories - Adults, Children, Best “Trapalhão”, King “Trapalhão” and Transvestites.
    The winners in each of these categories receive a cash prize.

    Thanks Jeff ☺
    It looks similar to a St Patrick's Day parade in Ireland but on a more grander scale.
    By the way I briefly covered Lido Tours, gave you another mention while filming the Hit The Road Tours sticker in their window in my Funchal vlog from last year!
    Enjoy the rest of your week my friend 🤗

    You got new hair and braces. Surprised you can eat anything, did you just get them? Because I remember when I had mine in I was unable to eat solid food for awhile (also when they tighten them).

    • @Hittheroadmadeira
      @Hittheroadmadeira  5 месяцев назад +1

      Yeah just got them, first few days were a bit tough but now I’m kinda used to it, I believe it gets worse after tightening, let’s see how it goes …
