New Orleans


New Orleans is a "happening" city, and we spent 4 days trying to see and do as much as possible! Anyway, we took the Super City Tour, which included the devastation of Katrina. How sad!!
This ia a picture of the French Quarter near downtown New Orleans. Their annual Mardi Gras celebration takes place here. (Wil says he's too old for this.)
This is an example of the many houses that were destroyed and are still waiting for something to happen.

Our last day here, we took the Riverwalk - much needed exercise for both of us - and this was beautiful....very busy as well - music, shopping, food, and the scenery, of course!

One of the memorials that caught our attention during the Riverwalk.

This was a beautiful day for the Riverwalk. Wil is here with the Mississippi River and the Huey P. Long bridge behind him.
