WOW! What a Night!
In celebration of Mardi Gras the Bon Temp Social Club of San Diego
and the Gator By The Bay Krewe paraded with 125+ Costumed Marchers
followed by a magnificent Gator Float carrying 40 bead-tossing Bon Temps Revelers.

Thanks go to Kathy Przekopp and the Gatorlandia Design Krewe.
They outdid themselves for the outlandish trip through the
historic Gaslamp section of San Diego February 16, 2010!
