MARDI GRAS

[sally]

I've been there, but not during Mardi Gras. My kids were 2 and 6 at the time so we weren't there to party in the bars all night, but we still had fun walking around the city. Lots of good food and people watching. Walking around in peace and enjoying all the sights is more up my alley than partying with a huge crowd of people anyway. We did get drunk with a couple of old black ladies on the river boat coming back from the zoo, though.
