These pictures of the Krewe of Centaur parade from 22 Feb 2014.. The Park or Family Area had alot of space available when I drove the parade route. Of course I like an easy exit, so I went to the drinking section even though I didn't have drop.. I'd say people were having quite a good time.. Parade lasted well over 2 hours, with lots of music of various types in between the floats. There was plenty of beads & goodies coming off the floats. Next week Saturday is the Krewe of Gemini XXV Mardi Gras Parade. Its starts @ 4:30pm in downtown Shreveport.. :^)

Wow thanks great pics.
