Day one in NOLA:

My first trip to New Orleans, and what a trip it was. If you’ve never been to Mardi Gras I hope this will give you a better picture of what it’s like the last week of all the traditional celebrations.

We marched in the second line with the “Funky Tucks” that led us to this midday krewe luncheon @ Broussards…

..where we started with two tables full of cocktails and an open bar!

Here’s an idea of the amount of adult beverages expected to be consumed per guest
