More Mardi Gras Merriment
Amazing, huh?
The "Burning Opera House" weighed 35 pounds, but the designer had it perfectly balanced so he barely noticed it at all. Note the "fire hose" -- the gilded, sequined and slightly suggestive fire hose. We were on the edge of St. Ann's, after all (as the intolerant, God-hates-you protesters with bullhorns noted. They apparently haven't met the loving God of the New Testament, preferring the spiteful and wrathful Old Testament God-- kind of like them. Didn't they hear that Jesus died to wipe away the sins of His children? But I digress . . . .)!
The zebra/giraffe wasn't quite so lucky in the weight department -- he had to stop and set down the menagerie every now and then because it was so heavy!
Unlike Moogie (see previous post), the lady in turquoise tights apparently hadn't lost her asp.
Sorry. I couldn't resist.
I don't know which is more fun in the Quarter -- Halloween or Mardi Gras Day!

If there's one thing that I liked about Mardi Gras, it's the fact that everything looks so colorful, vibrant and alive!
