CIJ day 6 / jour 6

New Orleans, Louisiana!

Another long 4-day weekend with sis, bil, dh’s sis, and bil.  I really liked New Orleans, it’s up there with Boston in my mind.  Of course, we went in July which is not the smartest idea… way too hot and humid!  On the other hand, there are not many tourists so we got to visit a lot with no waiting time.  We saw the devastation hurricane Katrina brought to New Orleans – incredible the water levels that were attained.
My favorite was the visit we made in the Bayous to see the alligators – wow!  We got to see many (as well as huge spiders) and we had the most fantastic time with our guide on the fan-boats.

We had a great hotel in the French Quarter, on the street parallel to Bourbon Street.

  1. We've never been to New Orleans, we'll visit one day perhaps.
