Mardi Gras in NOLA !
I know this event is in most of everyone’s bucket list.
I’m just glad I made it through without doing anything stupid.
Scenes from Mardi Gras: I saw a couple of parades, Tucks in the afternoon, and Endymion at night.
Endymion was a huge parade: big floats, big lights, and lasted for about 5 hours.

The last time I was in New Orleans, I met an eccentric man who told me I got the Voodoo and Blues in my soul…

- I love walking through the streets and catching a band here and there playing.

Travel tips and suggestions:
- If looking for a budget place to stay in for Mardi Gras (or any trip to New Orleans in general) I highly recommend the India House Hostel. They have shared and private dorms available. I only paid $25/night for my stay, and the location is perfect in Mid City, right across the street from the Canal Street Car stop.
- This is one of my favorite restaurants downtown: Acme Oyster House. Make sure to try their chargrilled oysters.
- Grab your Muffaletta from Central Grocery on Decatur Street. Their olives-filled stuffing is amazing.
