Due to flight delays, we barely made it to Tom's house before last night's parades were scheduled to start. Had just a few minutes to look at the floats, lined up and ready to go, before the skies opened up. About halfway through Druids, it dried out enough to entice us back outside to catch the inaugural ride of the Mystic Krewe of Nyx. While not as flashy and sassy as Muses, Nyx didn't disappoint. Their float style was a bit more traditional - nice to see Nyx try to find their own identity and not emulate Muses too closely.
Lauren and I both caught glitter purses! Actually, Lauren caught all sorts of stuff! Good thing my purse came in a large plastic bag, so Lauren had somewhere to dump all her loot and keep it dry.The cleanup up crew was impressive! Wish I had gotten a video, but it was raining too hard. They came right behind the last float with riding sweepers followed by a line of street scrubbers. It was like the last dance group of the parade!
