Happy Mardi Gras!

Well, Sandestin had a little Mardi Gras parade today, but nothing to rival the real Mardi Gras in New Orleans, which I've been to a few times.  Wild!

In fact, the floats were really decorated golf carts!  LOL!  But the obligatory bead-throwing and trinket-bestowing occurred, as you can see by the photo of us at Rum Runners for dinner afterwards. (No, I didn't try to catch any...been there, done that. ;))
