New Orleans, UNITED STATES: Melanie Clary of Algiers, Lousiana is dressed as 'The French Martini' during Mardi Gras festivities in the French Quarter of New Orleans, 28 February 2006. It is New Orlean's first Mardi Gras since Hurricane Katrina. Clary and her friends were dressed as different types of 'Katarina-tinis,' a play on the word 'martini', for a Mardi Gras day costume contest.
