What US city is known as the "birthplace of jazz"?
Correct answer: New Orleans, Louisiana

I would love to visit New Orleans for Madigras. I'm sure that's not how you spell it but to be able to experience that and then think about this bit of History I just learned would take me back in time.

I live it the greater New Orleans area. I am 20 minutes from the heart of the city. There is no place on earth like it. It's unique and my home. I survived Katrina and rebuilt. I was pregnant. jobless, and homeless overnight. We got back up and rebuilt and are stronger for all we went through. I will never be able to call anywhere else home. We have a party for anything and a festival every weekend. Les e le bon ton rouler!

thorsHammer24377, Are u saying that, only now, in the 21st Century, you learned this? Rock 'n' Roll also originated from the African-Americans.

EarthAngle2017, Me as well. Although I have been there several times my brother Craig and his beautiful wife Karen don't live too far away. The food and drinks are out of this world! I have always been a fan of Jazz music we (all three of us) my brother and sister Janice were all raised in a Jazz household. 1 more thing to add to my bucket list!

Laissez les bon temps rouler! (Let the good times roll!). Mardi Gras is French for Fat Tuesday, the day before the first day of Lent, Ash Wednesday. Please come visit friends!

Can't figure out how people talk back and forth during these comments. Once I leave the question I don't know how to get back to it.

Have planned 3 trips to New Orleans. Each was sabotaged. 1. car trouble. 2. hurricane. 3. Illness. Maybe it isn't in the cards for me.

EarthAngle2017, almost spelled correctly and the words are separated, Mardi Gras. I hope you get a chance to experience Mardi Gras it will be a lifetime memory!

EarthAngle2017, I am from Louisiana and believe me, Mardi Gras it’s very dangerous. People get stabbed over cheap beads. Totally not worth it. Stay safe. Same for Bourbon Street area. Stay safe. ♥️

EarthAngle2017, you missed out. King Rex doesn't even do the parade anymore. Try the Bayou Classic instead. Accommodations will be available, and you will be able to get around much better.
