GoNOLA Flickr Pick of the Week: New Year’s Eve in New Orleans

In New Orleans on New Year’s Eve, the city vibrates with the sound of celebration: bands play joyously, fireworks explode the night sky and boat horns sound the passing of 2011. The whole city will buzz with anticipation of 2012, facilitated by the Crescent City Countdown Club bringing a party to the French Quarter complete with brass bands on Decatur Street, the fleur de lis drop above Jax Brewery and the magnificent Symphony in the Sky fireworks show over the Mississippi River. Start off the new year triumphantly in New Orleans.
