I want to do my vacation around this time period. And experience this time. I need to know when it is. And exactly were. And maybe some ideas of were within say 60 miles would be good to stay. To travel. Donna |

Mardi gras is late this year!
they celebrate mardi gras in different states as well as cities. But it is primarily a southern thing louisiana, of course new orleans is the biggest long set of days of parades. March 3rd I believe is the date. (The tuesday before ash wednesday) but parades start the week before. new orleans is crazy to me! I don't like huge crowds but a lot of people do, not my thing. I like our lafayette one much more family oriented. bizi

Donna,
I would recommend staying away from New Orleans during Mardi Gras. I have a friend who is a police officer down there and he won't even let me near there during that time. He said crime is way to high!!!!! And tourist are their marks!!!!!!! Bizi is right and should know best as she lives there but the smaller towns are safer and I'm sure just as fun!! I have another friend who lives near Bizi and says she recommends the same. Hugs, Abbie P.S. I do love New Orleans though!!!!!!!!!

Oh I have no problem doing a small town.
Personally feel I probably will enjoy it more. I just want to experience the atmosphere mainly and the stuff going on. I don't know it just sounds fun to me. I need something different. Donna |
