Mobile Mardi Gras 2020

2020 was my second year renting the house at Fort Conde Inn downtown Mobile for Mardi Gras. The weather was perfect - clear skies, not too hot, not too cold (until Sunday when it rained all day, but we checked out and went home Sunday anyway). 

I'm thankful my family and friends could join me again. I had a great time including our house party (parties), the afternoon stop at Dauphine's, sub sandwiches at JJ's, day parades, Friday night parade and Momma's favorite mimosas. Let's do it again next year. 


Happy Mardi Gras, y'all!

Mardi Gras Mobile 2023

  2023 Mardi Gras was an awesome weekend with my family and friends. There are plenty of pictures to share with you on this page. Here is a recap of the weekend's adventures. Join us next year if you get a chance.  The weather was forecast to be cold and rainy all weekend, so I took my duck boots (great decision). Again, I rented 10 and 11 at Fort Conde Inn which are the two big rooms downstairs and upstairs across from the main building. Only April, Dan, Kelsy and Kash joined me Friday night. Everyone else came in Saturday morning.  April, Dan and I missed the Friday night parade. We ordered late at the Fort Conde Bistro and did not realize the parade was going to be over so soon. The three of us did try to catch the parade as it looped back into downtown, but April complained that we were running too fast and that her calves were burning. In all honesty, Dan and I thought we were just walking normally. We did crash a private party on the way back to the inn. We caught the last so

Mobile the Rest of the Night

December 15, 2018 The Rest of the Night in Mobile got a little Fuzzy There were a lot of places in downtown Mobile that we visited over the next several hours for our one night in downtown Mobile, Alabama. The evening did get a little fuzzy, but I remember our route pretty well. We left the Mobile Carnival Museum and headed down Dauphin street to Dauphin's so that I could show everyone the view before it got too dark. We were not dressed for dinner (very fancy place) but we felt comfortable enough to have drinks and appetizers at the high-top tables in the bar section. The walls are glass top to bottom around pretty much the entire place so you have an amazing view in almost any direction. Plus, the appetizers were affordable and very good. After Dauphin's, I took everyone over to the Battle House hotel where we took photos around the lobby Christmas tree and then snuck up to the rooftop pool which was closed but at least I got to show everyone another view of Mobile.
