Unfortunately, there has been some debate over this years celebration of Mardi Gras. Some residents argued that this year's celebration should have been cancelled. I would have to disagree. I'm happy to hear that the city of New Orleans continued the tradition of Mardi Gras. Mardi Gras is a piece of New Orleans. The first Mardi Gras was celebrated in 1699. I believe that knowing New Orleans is being rebuilt is what helps keep many residents going. Mardi Gras was part of the rebirth of a city torn apart at the seams.
Beginning of a new tomorrow
Is everyone’s dream
Rebirth of a city
Torn apart at the seams
Hope shines in the dawning of New Orleans
