Mardi Gras 2007 - The Big Day - Come to the Carnival!!

Mardi Gras is about people interacting with people.

Strangers become friends. Friends become family. Families become closer.

Despite what you may have heard the REAL Mardi Gras is humanity at its best.

This gallery trys to (almost) capture the sequence of the day.

Images progress from well before the parades roll and then through the Rex and truck parades.

Note: There are over 150 images in this gallery. Be patient, it may be slow to load. If an image seems very slow to load hit your REFRESH button.

This is a great gallery, esp in my own town! I like how you titled the images. Really enjoyed this, just as much as the parade itself. V
