Shreveport Saga: Cruise and Mardi Gras



The river banks were high as we had to board the Red River Cruise ship via a plank. Quick tour up and down the river that separates Shreveport from Bossier. After that it was Mardi Gras attending the Krewe of Centaur Parade. There was a tent for us and it was cold outside as it was the days we were here. Food...yes, more food...included. Just got a tast of the local cooking and sampled a bite of King Cake that tastes like coffee cake.

Beads, beads with medallions, plastic cups and other "soft" items were being thrown from the floats as people stretched to make the catch.
