Description

Scenes from a family trip into the countryside - two fashionably dressed young women blow up lilos, while a man tries to light a kettle. At Carleton Gala, women are seen preparing a float, then the main parade takes place with cheerleaders, a brass band, and children in historical costume on decorated floats. Finally, the Carnival Queen takes her place on the carnival field and visitors - both adults and children - enjoy the fairground rides.
