More Scenes from New Orleans!

June 12, 2013 by Elaine

One of the reasons I was excited for our tip to New Orleans is because it gave me a chance to take more photographs around the city. It really is an amazing place.

I’ll let the ton of photos tell the tale…

    Amazing pictures, all of them! I love you in the mirror, and your girl with the straw, and you and your hubs, and your hubs and the boys… I laughed out loud at the “strongest drink” on the back of the bike thingy… talk about cross marketing. 😀

    Love the photos!
    I like the feel of New Orleans, at least the feel I get from your pictures.

    LOVE your pictures!
    New Orleans has been on my bucket list ever since I read The Vampire Chronicles by Ann Rice (like back in the 90s, when they first came out and I was still young;))

    I’ve never been, but my best friend’s, whom I mentioned in my #OSBlog post, mother grew up there.

    I went to NO as a freshman in high school 20 years ago. Because of this post I TOTALLY want to go back. Great tour, Elaine!

    There are certain places you go that have their own feel. Like a vibe that runs through the city. New York and New Orleans both have their own vibe, an energy that pulses. I like going places like that.

    fabulous pictures!! this is definitely a trip on my Bucket List. I’ve always wanted to go — I’m a big jazz and blues fan and could sit all day listening to music in a cafe. But the architecture is absolutely gorgeous too. would Love touring the old houses.

    I did my clinical training in New Orleans at a Psychiatric Hospital in Uptown. I lived there for a year, and it was seriously like no other city I have ever lived in or heard of sense! Such a unique amazing place… great pictures!! (And I would go for runs past the cemeteries and through various streets, just so fascinated!!)

    I lived in NOLA for many years. I love the city. Your pictures make it appealing. However, the hot weather is now there, and I am certainly glad that I am not there this month or the next three.
