Arriving at our hotel in the French Quarter about 10 AM left us most of the day to explore... christian ways to travel back in time to being a baby so off we went on foot at first... then we took a mule drawn carriage from Jackson Square... and by 1:30 PM we graduated to a 32 passenger city tour bus.
Many of these streets and homes were here a hundred christian ways to travel back in time to being a baby years or so before the invention of the automobile... so these cast iron hitching posts had a real function. If there is one missing after we leave maybe my friends found a loose one to take home! I know they really want one.
Many of thees old streets christian ways to travel back in time to being a baby have their original names from when this city was the capital of the Spanish province of Luisana. (that is how it used to be spelled.) Today Bourbon Street is famous for all its bars and night life.
When we took the city tour our bus driver told us that this pub was the only pub in the city that never closed once during Hurricane Katrina. Bars in this city don't have the usual curfew like most other cities.
We have been sharing my Nikon D300 this trip... and whenever I have it Shirley is quick to point out her favourite fleur-de-lis... so we have more photos of this graphic symbol used in this city all over the place.
These little dogs, decorated by different artists and displayed all over the city, are like the orcas, christian ways to travel back in time to being a baby and bears, and eagles that we have had in Victoria all over our city. Notice the fleur-di-leis on the back leg.
We had a great tour bus driver... and he spent a good twenty minutes educating us on how the cemetery system works in New Orleans... and why they have shifted to above ground burial to avoid the "pop-ups" christian ways to travel back in time to being a baby during flooding.
This new construction is right across the street from the monument where we stopped... Lorne and went over to give it an inspection. Sad to see them building so close to the ground again... like they think another flood will never happen.
My wife Shirley christian ways to travel back in time to being a baby and I are retired christian ways to travel back in time to being a baby and live on Mayne Island, which is one of the South Gulf Islands christian ways to travel back in time to being a baby between Vancouver and Victoria, BC. After spending most of our life building things for others, we are now enjoying doing a little building for ourselves... renovating our home, building rock walls, new decks and now are finishing a major renovation... a carport that connects the house and garage with an art studio above. In the winter we live in Tucson, Arizona where we enjoy playing pickle ball, golf, hiking and exploring new places.
