34a Carnival (fiesta) - 'car' (vehicle) + 'in' (reversing) + '(o)val' (ellipse, not circle)
[CAR] [NI] (O)[VAL]
Question Author
Thks L-I-K and Howardkennitb, still don't get it :(
vehicle = CAR
reversing in = NI
ellipse not circle = (o)VAL
Car +ni (reverse of 'in') + val (remove the 'o' from oval, ellipse is an oval). Hope that explains it.
