Welcome to New Orleans, LA
We're Jazzed You're Here:
The International House (our boutique hotel):
Cool tile work in elevator, up close it didn't look like much until I took this picture:
We went on a paddleboat ride down the Mississippi - The Natchez (see video below):
Lifevest storage above our heads:
Departing from downtown/French Quarter:
Domino Sugar plant:
The paddle wheel up close:
Looking toward 9th Ward:
Returning to downtown, you can see Saint Louis Cathedral on the right:
French Market, where we did a little shopping:
Odd statue near French Market:
Donkey carriage rides (no, we didn't go on one):
Old advertisement that we ended up walking by a lot:
Remnants of parades on St. Charles Ave:
Bird sanctuary in Audubon Park:
There were literally hundreds of egrets!
And a cool lizard trying to puff himself up to scare us off:
We walked around Tulane University, which borders Audubon Park:
Of course I randomly picked the radioactive building to use the restroom:
Holy Name of Jesus Church, on Loyola University's campus right next door to Tulane:
We had breakfast at my friend's cousin's coffee house (Cafe Luna) on Magazine Street:
And stopped for chocolate at the same friend's other cousin's chocolate shop (Blue Frog Chocolates) just down the street on Magazine Street as well:
I had to get a chocolate ass, or um, donkey (because they did have the other kind too):
Back in the French Quarter and Jackson Square again:
Saint Louis Cathedral:
Protecting New Orleans:
General Jackson himself:
We walked around the deserted Louis Armstrong Park, north of the French Quarter:
Louis himself, with trumpet in hand:
Founder of New Orleans - Jean Bapriste Le Movne de Bienville (and two others):
Lafayette Square:
No, not Lafayette...but Henry Clay?
And Ben Franklin?
The musical entertainment while waiting to board the paddleboat:
