VIDEO: Hallowe'en in New Orleans.


So this is an example of the hilarity and surreality of New Orleans on Hallowe'en. This scene was on the way to Frenchman Street. We followed these drummers and their silver leader as they snaked their way through the streets.

And some other pictures. In sum, lots of people. In costumes. All night. We got in just before 6 a.m.


Frenchman Street, (arguably) the biggest party of the night.

Bourbon Street, par for the course.

Again, other direction.

The Simpsons run into each other.

I went out as a road trip across America. Did it work? Yes.

New Orleans at approximately 4:45 a.m.

Memories of Canada. I know, I know. This stuff is deadly. But it was deliciously home.

What are you talking about? Blue is a great beer. And that is a great costume. Being a road trip, did you have tire marks on the back of your shirt?
