Mardi Gras

This town is alive and kicking. Music, food, revelry, you name it. Packed! 100% hotel occupancy. If you can't have a good time here and now in New Orleans, check your pulse.
Some folks costume, some dance, some drink, some act, everybody eats and has a good time. And I smoke massive amounts of cigars while enjoying the outdoor activities.
Happy Mardi Gras all!

    Do you hang out at Armando's place there? Right next to the action but kind of small.

    I drop by and see Armando when I'm down in the French Quarter, but its' hard to visit with any regularity. Very knowledgable guy. And he gives me the local's discount.

    Loved hitting 18 and being able to cross the state line to go drinking. Gotta love drive up booze stores.
