Laissez Les Bons Temps Rouler!
Last week, people around the world celebrated the holiday of Mardi Gras. Qu'est-ce que c'est Mardi Gras? Mardi Gras, or Fat Tuesday, is a Christian holiday celebrated the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. Christians who observe this holiday celebrate by attending parades and festivals, and indulgent eating of cakes and sweets before the solemn period of repentance during Lent. Different countries and cities host their own celebrations, each with unique features. The largest celebration in the United States is in New Orleans, Louisiana. Click the title above to visit the official page Mardi Gras page of NOLA to learn more about "local" Mardi Gras celebrations.
