Saturday was the 10th annual roll of the Intergalactic Krewe of Chewbacchus! Chewbacchus is a science fiction-themed Mardi Gras parade; this was my 6th year taking part as a Leijorette. (The Leijorettes dress up as Princess Leia from Star Wars and wear boots — originally conceived as Majorette boots — thus, Leia-jorettes.)
Here are some links to Chewbacchus-related posts from prior years, if you’re curious: 2016, 2017, 2019
For the first time since I began marching in this parade, it concluded in the French Quarter, which was pretty awesome. It was a clear, cool, night, and passing by Jackson Square and St. Louis Cathedral was quite an impressive sight. (It happened too quickly for me to get a picture.)
I’ll conclude this post with some pictures I did manage to capture…

I love this Anne. I lived in NOLA for a couple of years and learned very quickly that there’s never any shortage of fun … or imagination in this town. The Krewe Of Chewbacchus is new to me, and I think it fabulous. Thanks for a good chuckle. ~James

Thank you, James! Chewbacchus started in 2010, I think, and has grown very popular in the last few years.
