New Orleans



For my 38th Birthday we went to New Orleans. It was pretty

fun. We went to the St. Louis Cathedral, St. Louis Cemetary #1,

Aquarium of the America's, The Garden District, Bourbon Street,

and Honeysuckle swamp.

This place is pretty cool. It is very old. A lot of the buildings

are built in the late 1700's and early 1800's. They are amazing.

The Cathedral was so beautiful. It was built in the late 1700's and

is amazing. There are painting on the ceilings and lots of stained glass

We also stopped at the famed Cafe Du Monde and had beignets. This cafe was

built in 1862 and is the place to go for this treat. No experiance is complete without

a stop here. We toured the swamp and it too was very nice. They took us way back

in the swamp. Some of the places the boat could barely go through. We

also saw lots of alligators. They actually throw marshmellows out in the

river for them to eat. They will come right up to the boat. My one last thought

is Bourbon Street is for over 21 at all times. We walked down part of it

during the day and the pictures in the windows very explicit.

Other then that we had a wonderful time and it made turning 38

a lot easier being gone.
