Fat Tuesday 2009

Me and Derric - look @ all the beads!

These were cool

Kewl LED lights

The Shriners & little cars

Why is the studio sign on a port-a-potty?

I want my MTV...to actually play music videos!

We were 'beggin' for some beads!


Show me the beads!!! So we didn't make it down to Soulard for this year's Mardi Gras, but we did the next best thing. We went to the Fat Tuesday Parade downtown. They changed up the route this year. It began at Lumiere Place at Washington and Broadway and continued down Broadway to Market.
Derric and I parked at the Casino and walked up a couple blocks. I brought along my beverage of choice and we parked ourselves right at the beginning of the parade. What a great idea that was! We got tons of beads! We also saw the drunken craziness that goes along with the festivites. No - not me - I can handle my liquor. There were drunken girls doin what D calls the "drunken switch". Which reminds me...D why were you lookin at their switch ?!?! Hahaha. It was short but sweet - just 30 minutes - so we walked around Laclede's Landing and got a few pictures.
