Saturday night in the Quarter: February 14, 2015

A passing Elvis gave Trish and Connie green scarves and gave Trish some Mardi Gras beads. Trish passed them on to Connie, for her very first pair of Mardi Gras beads




What Connie and Trish did for Mardi Gras beads on Bourbon Street.  People on the balconies toss beads to the crowd below.

Trish with some of her score.  Christians set up on Bourbon Street to offer revelers the opportunity to change their ways.

Busy, busy Bouron Street

Lots of fun costumes

These kids were on Bourbon Street when we were there, with their mobile sound machine.  We're blocks from the Quarter now, headed back to the car

At the back of St. Louis Cathedral, the shadow of Christ blesses the Quarter

No trip to NOLA would be complete without café au lait and beignets at Café du Monde
