Mardi Gras Decorations in French Quarter

Preparation for Mardi Gras begins as Christmas is winding down.  Twinkle lights and trees stay up, the colors change from red and green to purple, green and gold.  Every day brought new decorations to the balconies and storefronts.

Balconies are dressed with ribbon, balls and twinkle lights

The "Christmas Tree" in the hotel lobby has been
changed to a "Mardi Gras Tree" in mid January.
It will stay that way through mid March.
