This page illustrates a trip that I made with my friend Brenda in February 2004. I had previously visited Louisiana in 1997. This page concentrates on the pre-Mardi Gras Carnival parades. Parades start in early January; by the week before Mardi Gras day, two or three happen each day in the New Orleans area. The weeks before Mardi Gras have a family atmosphere and can be a good time to go.
These photos show the situation before Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005.
This page shows a snapshot of the area 18 months before the destruction of Hurricane Katrina.
The Gulf shore and Mississipppi delta are a great area for taking photos.
