yourself in the middle of the French Quarter wearing
a colorful sequined mask and elegant evening attire.
The upbeat sounds of New Orleans carnival music
are all around you. Everyone is offering you beaded
necklaces in all shapes and colors. People everywhere
are celebrating the fun, colorful, and exciting
event that is Mardi Gras!! There is a part of you
that wants to break out and celebrate! On entering
you are immersed into the streets of New Orleans.
Park benches, lush foliage, architectural details,
a large functioning fountain, and a street sign
welcoming you to "Bourbon Street" replicate
actual New Orleans scenes. Beautiful lights sparkle
everywhere in the rich greens, golds, and purples
that are the colors of Mardi Gras. Full size jester
mannequins, Mardi Gras clowns, stilt walkers and
animals complete the vibrant display and welcome
you to the Mardi Gras Masquerade. Every so often
you come across an event that stops you in your
tracks and all you can say is WOW! Every day is
the right day for Mardi Gras!! |
