Mardi Gras 2010: Schedule, Musics

Mardi Gras 2010 Schedule: Having Fun and Go Crazy


what suggestions would you make for new orleans?

ok…we’ve been to new orleans a few times–we’ve been to the jazz fest (and we’re going this time too–just one day)…

we always eat at "the gumbo shop" (for gumbo z’herbes) and "moon wok" (for their banh mi chay)…

we’ve been to the lower ninth ward, the battlefield (battle of new orleans), the mardi gras museum, the LA state museum, the big catholic church at jackson square, the aquarium, the garden district, the french quarter, bourbon street, the french market, cafe du monde (sorry–way overrated), several cemeteries, the casino, the audobon park…

we’ve taken the algiers ferry and the trolley cars…we’ve been on a couple swamp boat rides–one air boat, one not…

we’re pretty broke so we don’t want to go to any fancy restaurants–and we’re vegetarian, so any food recommendations would have to keep that in mind–we’re also very limited in time so we’re just looking for something fun to do that would be different from what we’ve done before…

Besides New Orleans which other U.S. cities are best-known, for women exposing themselves in public?

Other than being at The French Quarter in New Orleans, during Mardi Gras celebration, in February which among other U.S. cities are best known, for women exposing indecency or flashing themselves in public? Perhaps somewhere in Miami or West Palm Beach during spring break, or maybe in your own neighborhood. I’m sure some of you had seen "Girls Gone Wild" video series.
