NOLA

The Lower Mississippi was so worth it to arrive here!

The levees that protect New Orleans from the canals, the river and Lake Pontchartrain. Ummm???
One of the many large pumping stations required because those levees are not that high!
In addition to the Domino refinery, Folgers coffee has a huge processing plant on the industrial waterfront. The Folgers plant is MUCH more presentable…😬
You have most likely seen the Garden Districts iconic facades but many of NOLA’s neighborhoods have interesting architecture in their own right.

You gotta love a city with a sense of humor…

Jackson Square in the French Quarter. Bourbon St, the river front, street music and ice cream drinks – everything is easily accessible from here.

The Christmas lights in City Park (Celebration in the Oaks), 2.25 miles and over 1 million lights!

Humor and good food…

No one (practically) is buried, everyone is interred in these beautiful cemeteries.

Yum, Beignets! Even if the sugar came from that Domino plant…πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹

  1. I am a few post behind but this one is great… I remember when I was there for our family reunion and visiting some of those places. The beignets were the best…
