Arthur Hardy, Mardi Gras expert and historian, publishes the annual Mardi Gras Guide. Arthur shares the big news for Carnival 2008: the Krewe of Endymeon's long awaited return to its pre-Katrina Mid-City route. "It sends a message that the police department, if not at full strength, is strong enough to handle the large crowds in Mid-City", Arthur says. And he notes that the pre-parade party and concert on Orleans Avenue are great fun, too. Arthur also talks about "Family Gras" in Metairie on the first weekend of Mardi Gras.
