Penguins on carnival

While penguins are so popular, several carnival groups have used them as theme for their wagon and costumes.
The parades took place in different places in the Netherlands on February 2004 and 2005.

The group "Family Penguin" in Roermond (NL - 2004).
They used the penguinsong for music and made a large penguin to put on their car.
And of course they were dressed as penguins.
