Each year for Mardi Gras, I go to New Orleans with my family. My family always invites some of their friends to meet us on Sunday to see a parade called Thoth. My dad is in the parade and throws me a bag of beads when he goes by. We stay at the Hilton hotel near the Riverwalk mall. The best part about staying at the hotel is that it is connected to the mall and it is less than a minute's walk to it.
We also go to another parade called Bachus after the first parade. We meet the same people to go see it and find a spot at the end of the parade route. The reason for this is that the people in the parade will throw more things to you if you are at the end of the route. They do this because they are not allowed to leave their float with any throws left at the end of the route. Each year I enjoy Mardi Gras and Mardi Gras break.
It sounds like it is a lot of fun to go to New Orleans. I have been to New Orleans once for Mardi Gras and it was fun.;
ReplyDeleteI was in New Orleans for Mardi Gras, you should have texted me. By the way, I like your descriptions.
