Today is Friday Feb 24th- and my family is planning for the Parade in Lafayette on Saturday.
Because of work schedule Saturday parades work for us. Even though school is out for a week and its a legal holiday -not all things stop for Mardi Gras.
Parade going has a lot of tradition for people –
Which Parade? (there many ) Most people have a favorite .
Where to Stand ? Route, next to food or bathrooms , beginning or end of parade
What to bring / Wear ? The weather can be a deciding factor on clothes. Some people bring chairs to sit, ladder to catch beads and cooler.
With a family and getting older we do the easy and safe way. We go to Saturday Parade- couple of stop along the way for some treats and off to the parade at a secure location.
