Happy Mardi Gras day! Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez


Today is Mardi Gras in New Orleans. A city that is still recovering from Hurricane Katrina but is out and celebrating today. Enjoy the festivities by listening to the sounds of New Orleans Jazz from the Louisiana Folklife Program and the Welcome to the Zydeco Kingdom website.
Or read about Mardi Gras History from the Institute of New Orleans History, and What is Vodou? from The New Orleans Mistic
Even better, join, volunteer or donate to the American Red Cross who are working to alleviate the suffering of those in the United States, Haiti and around the world.
