SOwhat does a person don on fat tues...go to a mardi gras parade and that is just what we did...along with jim and tish from back home and had nev er been to one of these things we told them that they just had to go and see what it was all about...the parade staarted at 10 ..so we picked them uo around 9am and off to wal-mart to park and off to see the parade...as usuall there were lots of floats of various shapes and sizes..one of the things they do from the floats is throw stuff like beads--stuffed toys--and just stuff..it took awhile for jim and tish to get in the swing of things of knocking down those in front of you to get the good "stuff" being thrown but they did ahhahahaha...after the paradewe took a little ride jim wanted to put his feet in the gulf of mexico so off to the beach we went...then it was time for lunch...
we had to wait 15 min to get a table then we ordered and it took about an hr to get our food...at one time the waitress stopped to tell us that the kitchen was rather busy..da we sorta thought that or we had been forgotten...finally our meal did arrive almost dinner time as it took so long..
back to the rig we went to start getting ready for travel today...we are now in bay st louis for a few days..we have several things on our mid that we want to do and one of them to look up an orphange that our good friends the hounsell worked at after katrina and we will se if they can use us to help out for a day or two...
