Galveston Mardi Gras

Mardi Gras will be kicking off tommorrow. A half Million people will visit the islabd over the next 2 weeks, and the city will respond to the extra traffic by blocking off streets and access. This years Mardi Gras will takes on a little extra meaning after Katrina. Most folks will have thoughts of the disastor that struck New Orleans. Yet I doubt it will dampen the revelry, and excitement of the party.

This year they have a Carnival at 33rd and Seawall. It might be nice to go on the ferris wheel and get a seagulls eye view of the Gulf.

Those comming into and leaving the Island might want to be a little extra careful. Every law enforcement agency on I45 seems to take an oportunity to give few extra tickets on to celebrate Mardi Gras every year.
