Drug prohibition

Mardi Grass in Nimbin is a movable feast: of colour, music and social networking along with mind-bending substance ingestion. The marijuana harvest is in and the green hills and valleys of Nimbin are awash with the best buds known to man. I used to live in Nimbin in the early nineties and always try and make the pilgrimage to Nimbin at this time if I'm in the country. Consequently, I've been to quite a few Mardi Grasses, not that I can claim to remember too much of what went down. I was in Nimbin at the first Mardi Grass in 1993. Compared to today it was a modest affair, with perhaps a hundred people in attendance.
