For our second parade we went to the NYX Krewe parade at night. The atmosphere was completely different at night as you might expect. We are not sure but believe the name NYX comes from the beauty product company by the name. Maybe they sponsored the particular parade? This parade had a decorated woman’s purse as the main desirable catch. Nephew Stephen also knew someone from work on one of the floats so he got the desired purse.
Here are some of the pictures we took that evening. The floats had a much more festive aura to them at night as the generators attached to each float kept the electricity flowing to all the neon lights.
Laurie’s expression in the first pic says it all!!
