Happy Mardi Gras from New Orleans
Had to watch Zulu and Rex today on TV because it's colder than Boulder in NOLA and raining too. But of course the floats. costumed walkers, and bands parade on and they are so beautiful. Sat and Sun were 80 degrees and we got lots of "Hey Mista" beads, stuffed animals for my great granddaughter three-year-old Aurora, and pictures of the unbelievable floats We've had a ball eating great seafood and king cake. Coloradans: make plans for next year!
