Fountain of Youth

Freshly minted high school graduates a-frolicking in the fountain (local tradition). I think it's safe to say the average blood alcohol level is non-zero...
About the headgear: Danish tradition dictates that students upon passing their last exam be presented with a 'student cap' (bought and paid for in advance; whether you follow the tradition is voluntary, though). The caps have different coloured bands, denoting which branch of youth education the student came up through (academic, business, technical etc.). This bunch have maroon bands, so it's the academic branch, and many will no doubt be starting university in the autumn.
