Fantasy Fest officially began this weekend and the party continues for 10 days, through the 26th.

We've got a couple people down there and hope to have some photos soon.

Any locals reading? How does FF look this year? Hook us up with a FF report!

Here's a little more info on this year's Fantasy Fest theme, Pirates, Pundits and Political Party Animals:

Looks like you guys are having a blast..

Thanks for posting the pics!
(we'll update w/ some pics and video of voodoo fest in a few minutes...)

Pics are great! Heard there were less people attending FF as the Inn Keepers stated there were 30% of their rooms weren't booked for this year. I guess the economy, election & what ever else was going on these past weeks/month had something to do with it.

Well, you couldn't tell it by me... the streets were PACKED. But, I think 5 days or torrential, gulley-washing flooding rain hurt Monday through Thursday - I didn't see anyone on the streets moaning and groaning about the economy! They were having a ball - it's hard to be depressed down here even during a depression! Ha!
