I enjoyed three days days of Mardi Gras parades put on by a bunch of different krewes with lots of different themes. Feathers, sequins, beads… music, dancing, revelry… costumes, marching bands, & horses… equaled so much fun for hours and hours each day. It wasn’t the crazy drunken thing I had heard about, but more of a wonderful chance to hang Uptown for a few days with NOLA folks in more like a local 4th of July style. I’m glad I picked a mellower weekend to experience this wonderful tradition, though I’m super curious about what it’s like down in New Orleans this weekend and on Fat Tuesday. There’s always next time…
