Tyler had to go to New Orleans on a business trip for a week. He had some crazy stories about mardi gras and the lifestyle down there. His favorite part was the Mansions down there. They are pretty amazing.
This picture makes me laugh. It was Mardi Gras down there. There is a parade 3 or 4 times in just a week, each one bigger than the next. Some families ( like this one) screw boxes on top of ladders for their kids to sit in so they higher than everyone else and can catch more beads. I don't think it's the safest thing with a crowd of drunk people.
Everyone in the parade was wearing costumes like this. They look like the KKK.

One of the floats! People pay a fee to ride these so they wear a mask, get drunk and throw beads. They had started to strap the people on the floats because they fall off sometimes.
New Orleans and Mardi Gras were quite an experience and one he never wants to do again.
