I’ve been to #NOLA several times - absolutely love it - but I had always intentionally avoided #MardiGras season because #tourists. This spring I was living there for 6 months so couldn’t avoid the #parades, and I learned it’s not about the tourists - these are parties for the locals! And yes, such a blast, but I missed #chewbacchus (work). Something deep inside me just resonates with that place. (And omg: #SecondLine parades - I’d never even heard of them before!)
