Travel theme: Shimmer

This part of the world is decked in heavy frost which catches the light, glittering and sparkling as you walk by. So this week’s theme is dedicated to everything that shimmers. It is also dedicated to the memory of Vladimir Brezina from windagainstcurrent.com who made the world shimmer brighter when he was in it. First up, a shimmering Fasching mask in Aachen.karneval, carnival, fasching, travel, masks, travelogue, ailsa prideaux-mooney
