Zomer Carnaval 2008 (Rotterdam)

My husband and I spent Saturday afternoon in Rotterdam, where we joined thousands of spectators on the streets to watch this years Zomer Carnaval (Summer Carnival.)  Armed with my camera I chose my spot – the same spot where I stood for last year’s carnival – and there I patiently waited for more than an hour for the carnival to pass by.

I did took more than hundred photos but she, for me, stood out from the rest. She was pretty entertaining  and  gamely posed for all the paparazzi around.

But does she remind you of someone? Or perhaps of two people?

Is Michael Jackson in there? Or perhaps Diana Ross?
