New Orleans Jazz Fest Began Today

New Orleans Fairgrounds

The sky fell in and it rained a few inches and lightning crackled all over, but that did not stop anyone from having a good time. They just put on their rain gear and boots or went around in wet clothes. The food, as usual, is a big part of the Fest with Crawfish Monica, Boudin, Pralines and Pork or Oyster Po-boys being the perennial favorite. Oh, yes, at Jazz Fest one eats everything and anything because it's all good. Lionel Richie was playing on stage when the heaviest rain was coming down but no one moved away.
Jazz Fest 2010 continues through the weekend and cranks up again on Thursday through the weekend.
Come on down and pass a good time.

I'll vouch for the few inches of rain! Seemed more like a monsoon. I was soaked, but managed to keep my camera dry.

Looks like a great time Colleen, seem like it always colorful at these events in New Orleans. The big storm in the past sure didn't dampen their spirits...Maybe some year I will make it down there and see what really its like...Thanks for sharing...
