What exactly Anba Dlo is you will have to click on through to the official festival website for the explanation.

From the website:
“The New Orleans’ spirit is about celebrating life; whatever the situation may be. This spirit is the basis for Anba Dlo- we come together to celebrate New Orleans’ important and changing relationship with water while educating on the important issues.

What a year,
As many of you have guessed, by our lack of getting you cards, gifts, well anything. We have a pile of stuff that should go to the post office, hopefully before we head to Vietnam on the 22nd. If not I am sorry we love you all anyway. Please accept some photos from the Lady Rollers Second Line as payment for my lack of fortitude and determination to get to the post office.
