Our next stop was New Orleans - I knew I'd like this city, but I wasn't prepared for how chock full of great music, people, history, food, and fun it would have! I'm definitely coming back at some point soon for more exploring. Thanks to Jan & Rick for letting us stay at their comfy & stylish digs, and thanx to Jill at
The Chimes for orienting us, having us for an excellent breakfast and being a hospitable hostess! Also thanks to Iris for showing us a few wonderful restaurants and music venues and getting a great group of friends together spontaneously!
Cafe Du Monde - we made 3 visits to sample the sublime frozen lattes and beignets! When you order them to go, there's about a pound of sugar left in the bottom of the bag after you're done - YUM!
Gorgeous architecture in the
French Quarter
I loved these amazing "church lady" hats!
Fried alligator (far right), fried rabbit liver (front), and oysters (left) - a wonderful NOLA lunch at
Conchon.
The
St. Charles Street trolley
Mossy Man
Beaded Tree
Neat old gas station
I love these tiled in-the-sidewalk street signs.
