Halloween in New Orleans
In our experience, there are two cities that stand head and shoulders above the rest on Halloween: New Orleans and Maui. Here in New Orleans, the festivities are underway. At night, the streets of the French Quarter are closed to traffic. The costumes are plentiful and outlandish. Police patrol on horseback. Crowds swell the second story balconies of almost every establishment and residence, throwing beads and candy down to those below. Street musicians are everywhere, playing terrific blues and jazz.
We've got a NACDL Budget Committee meeting and a Legislative Affairs meeting left this afternoon before we shut down to enjoy the festivities, and indulge in some more oysters on the half-shell, seafood gumbo, and our very favorite, beignets.
A happy Halloween to all.
