Mardi Gars


We go to reserve a spot on the street at three in the afternoon by sitting on the curb. The parade does not start until 7pm. There is a liquor store on the corner. We meet wonderful people whom we are standing next to and proceed to drink a fair bit throughout the afternoon/evening. They give us whistles, and we're a bit tipsy. The parade is great, and the whole city is celebrating. We meet Todd's Australian doppelganger, if not soul mate. We get info for Todd, and say only good things about him.
