so lawng nawlins

I have to admit this trip was a lot more fun than I remember New Orleans being compared to the times I've been here before - which were more than eight years ago. Maybe its just life experience adding perspective, especially after a few trips in Europe and being able to note the similarities. It could be having rented a cottage hidden in the middle of a block in the French Quarter (the next to last pic). And certainly having a friend who lived here to show me around and add tips and perspective and company made for more fun. Who knows. But its been fun. Time to board the plane and get back to life in the other LA now...
