Carnival in Badajos
Nations are only a train ride apart, that too, a four hour one! Badajos is on the Lisbon – Madrid railway close to the Portuguese border. From Mação we make a rough diagonal to the South East, cutting across first the river Tagus and then the Guadiana. The Guadiana presently divides Badajos into two.
Carnival in Badajos was Lolo and Boris’s suggestion. Lolo is a student of journalism in the University of Extremadura in Badajos. As for me, I could be anywhere but in Mação. I had absolutely no idea of what it was to be in a carnival. Thankfully Dani alerted me to the simple rules like “if you don’t wear a costume to the carnival, you are asking for trouble”.
