"Colours are brighter when the mind is open." - Adriana Alarcon _ View of downtown New Orleans from the rooftop pool at Le Pavillon Hotel. _ The gorgeous city of New Orleans has a unique colorscape, a heartbeat of purple, green and gold. The colors of one of the biggest parties on earth - Mardi Gras. We visited Mardi Gras World (who create 80% of the floats each year) and got to see the floats up close and learned about the creation process and history of this fascinating cultural phenomenon. _ #findyournola @visitneworleans
