A few shots above from our trip to Long Beach for the Mardi Gras celebration this past weekend. We were surprised by how cute the harbor is down there. With funnel cakes, ice cream sandwiches, plenty of restaurants and a boardwalk that circles all the way around the water, it's a really fun place to spend the day. We tried some new beers at The Yardhouse, shared a funnel cake, watched some live music and showed off our beads (which were some of the best!).

Then - last night - to wrap things up, we headed to one of our favorite Santa Monica bars for some crawfish eating, hurricane drinking and Fat Tuesday celebrating.

All in all - a great Mardi Gras 2011!

(By the way, how is it already Wednesday? This week has totally slipped away from me - but hey, only two days until Friday? I'm not complaining!)
