More Parades

My Mom and sister came up from Florida for the weekend to see parades and experience Mardi Gras. The parade passes by on the oposite side of the French Quarter from where we live and since it was a little chilly and night time we decided to drive up to Saint Charles Avenue to park and see the parades. There were four parades rolling, three regularly roll on this night and one that was rescheduled from yesterday do to the weather. The first parade, Oshun definately had the best floats and the last one, Muses had the best throws. Muses is an all girl Krewe, they are fun to see because they have unique throws. My Mom took some really good pictures of the floats in Oshun which you should check out at the New Pictures link. This first picture is of the side of Kristy's head, Scott, Chance, Dan and Rayna. I don't know why I am giving Scott the eye. The second one is Chance all bundled up. Scott, Dan and Chance went home half way through the second parade. Mom, Kristy and I stayed to watch the other two parades. Thanks to Scott for bravely putting Chance to bed. We came home with two big bags of beads and other throws, yeah!
