MARDI GRAS in New Orleans (2022)

Laissez le bon temps rouler!!!
⚜️🎉🥳
That's the Cajun French phrase meaning "Let the good times roll," and it's basically the motto of Mardi Gras in New Orleans. It fits perfectly, as the good times roll for several weeks in Carnival season.
We had been to Carnival in Mazatlan, Rio, and Barranquilla (check our past videos on all of those on the channel!), so we knew we had to give the famous celebrations in the Big Easy a try.
Rather than go the weekend leading up to Fat Tuesday, we went a week earlier as per a recommendation from local friends. We still partied (quite a bit, actually!), but we got to experience a more local side of Mardi Gras.
Check out some highlights from our time in the Crescent City, including the Krewe of Cork, Krewe of Cleopatra, Krewe of Freret, and the Krewe of King Arthur, as well as some general French Quarter shenanigans and some live music on Frenchmen Street!
