Laissez les Bonne temps roulez

Fat Tuesday, Pancake Tuesday however you want to say it ..... the action is in New Orleans.
The pictures below are of when we went to New Orleans in 2000 on Feb 27th so exactly 6 years ago.
Mind you at the time it was a couple of weeks before mardi gras but there was still alot of things happening in the Big Easy.
If anyone is close to the area please make the trip there.. as we all know it was hit by hard times and is trying to rebuild its city one again.
The food, the people ... fantastic .. cajun and creole.. Such an experience and lucky to have had
that experience.
One day I will go back there to see my kin folk.
Have a great Mardi gras. See you soon
