New Orleans at night ... truly the Big Easy!!!

We strolled down Bourbon Street to see some of the night sights ... lots of bright lights, loud music, and people partying up and down the street.

Anita sampled all the interesting food ... creole and cajun.

The sacred and the profane .... this is the famous St. Louis Cathedral at night.

New Orleans

We hit town and headed for the French Quarter in search of some lunch.

Anita ate all the local favorites ... red beans and rice, jambalaya, gumbo.

Then called home to say hello.

Jackson Square

We took an excellent 3 hour tour in a small van and got to see a lot of the city's famous and infamous sights ... the beautiful and the depressed areas.
