New Orleans and then going home.

Since my last post we have traveled from Sioux Falls to New Orleans.  Tomorrow we head east to Florida.  We will be going by Foley, Alabama to eat at Lambert's Restaurant. While here in New Orleans we to a Hop On/Hop Off tour bus to see the sights.   Here are a few pictures of our stay at New Orleans.
This is the Basin St Station of the Southern Railroad, which is now the Hop On Hop Off starting point.

This is the Jimmy John's owed by Drew Brees.  We ate lunch there.





Some of the ironwork on the buildings.

A gargoyle on the chimney to ward off evil spirits.  




The entrance to Mardi Gras World.  We went there but did not do the tour.


Bridges over the Mississippi River downtown on the riverfront.


This is a piece of art work made from Hurricane Katrina debris.  It is a house in a tree showing what happened in the Lower 9th Ward. 


The tallest building in Louisiana, 52 stories tall.  One Shell Square



Don't remember what street this was.

Some of the homes.



The house in the tree again.

New outlet mall that just opened on the river.

Statue of Joan of Arc given to New Orleans by the French.
