Hubig's Pies was my FAVORITE place to get fried pies in New Orleans until about 6 months ago. When I saw a Hubig's pie, I thought IMMEDIATELY of New Orleans. The bakery burned to the ground, and they are in the process of rebuilding at the same location. Both David (walking in the picture) and I miss going to the store to buy these pies!
Mardi Gras Indians are another thing that make me think immediately of New Orleans. This is a tradition that only exists here. These are African-American men and women who dress up in colorful costumes that look similar to those worn by Native Americans of the United States. They come out on Mardi Gras morning!
I like your second picture. I asociated with history, ancestres and holidays! part of culture!!!
