Went to the Mardi Gras in 1975 and vowed to not miss it if I was single. Went again in 1976 and 1977. Married later in 1977 so I haven't been back for Mardi Gras, but spent a week in NO last year with my wife. Bourbon Street was a little too sleezy for an old guy, but the rest of the French Quarter was great. Great memories, love the city's culture. And the food!
I was pleasantly surprised by Bourbon St this time. But…I was there during the day. Full writeup coming soon.Went to the Mardi Gras in 1975 and vowed to not miss it if I was single.
