We have lots of family in the Big Easy that we are fortunate enough to visit. This tour was certainly one of the highlights of our last visit there.
For over 50 years, Blaine Kern Studios has been building these magical floats..
and fanciful creatures for Mardi Gras.
The tour starts off with a short video presentation, then it's off to the warehouse where you get to observe the artists in action.
Did you know that the figures are carved out of styrofoam? Pretty amazing..
Aaand at the end of the tour, they cut you loose to walk/run amok among all these unbelievable creations...
You might even see a familiar face or two...
The detail is truly incredible...
