   Mardi Gras is held on the Tuesday that falls 46 days before Easter. The 12 days before it are filled with over 70 parades of dazzling floats--there arc 9 parades on the day of Mardi Gras alone! Come and join us for a festival you’ll never forget!
   Tips for visitors:
   Many hotels start taking reservations for Mardi Gras in August. To get the room you want, call well in advance. Don’t wait until January!
   Plan your transportation beforehand is quite necessary. Remember that many streets are closed to ears. Bus and streetcar schedules are often changed.
   For the big parades on the weekend before Mardi Gras, plan to arrive about four hours ahead of time. For the Sunday Night Parade at 6 p.m. you will need to find a good spot in the morning.
   It can be very warm or very cold at this time of year. You might need a jacket, sunscreen, or an umbrella--or all three. So it will be helpful if you can check the weather forecast.
   People riding on floats in the parades give "throws" to the crowd. Spectators jump up to catch beads, plastic coins, cups, and toy animals. Bring a plastic bag to hold all your treasures. For more information, contact New Orleans Visitors’ Bureau, (800) 555-6789. Outline for this passage:
