Mardi Gras pooch

Happy Carnival

Mark Twain observed, “… I think that I may say that an American has not seen the United States until he has seen Mardi Gras in New Orleans.”

It’s Monday morning in New Orleans and this Monday that means Lundi Gras! In the blink of an eye, Carnival will be over. In most places, tomorrow will be just another Tuesday. Here it is Mardi Gras, a major celebration. Schools will be closed. No mail will be delivered. Banks are closed. People, of all ages, will be outfitted in costumes and masks. The city is adorned with beads and doubloons and boas and funny hats and colored wigs.

Mardi Gras makes you say and do funny things. Yesterday, for instance, I noticed the time and remarked, “Okeanos is rolling and I haven’t started the king cake yet!” You are used to asking people if they are sidewalk side or neutral ground so you can find them on the parade route. I was very happy when I found my pink wig (that is a normal thing around here). We wondered if my husband’s Mardi Gras hat needs new batteries – because, of course, it lights up.

No one escapes this craziness.

Carnival in New Orleans is hard to explain. It is something that has to be experienced. It is fun and crazy. All of the colors, the music, the smells and excitement overload the senses. It is like nothing else. Hope your Monday is fabulous. Wish you were here!

    My husband and i ended up being really contented that Michael managed to finish off his investigation with the precious recommendations he gained when using the web site. It’s not at all simplistic just to possibly be making a gift of guidance which the rest might have been trying to sell. And we all take into account we need the writer to be grateful to for this. Most of the explanations you made, the simple website navigation, the relationships you make it easier to instill – it’s mostly powerful, and it is leading our son and the family reckon that this content is fun, which is very indispensable. Thanks for everything!

    I’ve been surfing online more than 3 hours nowadays, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It? lovely worth sufficient for me. In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made excellent content material as you probably did, the net might be much more useful than ever before.
