Bourbon Street on Mardi Gras night

Where else can you go but walk up down from Decatur to Bourbon for the music and fun on Mardi Gras evening in New Orleans. Everyone want to get and give hugs except for those misguided  lines of folks carrying a large cross pushing everyone out of the way down the center of the street.
 Dinner was scrumptious. Maybe some chicory coffee today with Beignets.
But first some hangover mix.
 The streets and balconies were packed. Surprisingly the rest of the town was empty and closed.
Maybe it was the rain


Everyone was having a great time except for this group of about 100 misguided souls who had lost their way.

 Canal street was blocked by Bourbon Street Parades and a red carpet from the Marriott to the big hotel across the street.
We couldn't find a cab for less than $20 to take us ten block to the Greenhouse in so we walked the 10 blocks down Magazine Street.
