Caption/Description

Melissa Smith throws beads from the balcony of the Royal Sonesta Hotel on Bourbon Street. The French Quarter has no major parades but it is the center Mardi Gras decadence. Tourists housed in tony hotels are shielded from reality of Hurricane Katrina and see only a fraction of New Orleans.
