To the visitor it must seem that every night is carnival night in the famous old French quarter of New Orleans, for when the sun goes down the spirit of the fiesta comes up, and from the cafés and gardens of balcony houses, music and laughter pour out into a mainstream of Gerely, which causes the narrow streets until dawn.
