The Second Lines and Street Scenes Gallery
On our 48th Anniversary trip to New Orleans and Mardi Gras, we spent much of Tuesday, March 1, 2022 roaming around the French Quarter enjoying the impromptu parades and “Second Lines” as well as many other colorful street scenes. I also took an early morning walk that day and saw some nice sights. The blog post of our trip does not include all of the photos and videos we took, so this gallery includes photos and videos not in our blog. Enjoy!
A Few Videos From Our Afternoon Stroll Around The French Quarter on Fat Tuesday….
In this first video, I can’t quite talk Dorothy into joining these three gentlemen who were performing on Royal Street…
An impromptu parade with a long second line cruising down a side street next to St. Louis Cathedral as Dorothy does a little jig!
This little video was taken on Royal Street in the French Quarter, and features a laid back impromptu parade and second line. I believe Dorothy also spotted Elvis in this second line!
In this little video, Dorothy ALMOST caught some beads being thrown from a balcony in the French Quarter. Better luck next time Dorothy!
This final video is of a street performer named Maurice. He is the young man playing the acoustic guitar and trombone in this video. He was out there most of the day, usually playing and singing by himself. Apparently he is also on the current season of American Idol. Good luck Maurice!
