Arrived in the "Big Easy" and have spent two days checking out the sights.  We got a personal tour of the city with a good friend of Michele's, Jamey, who works and lives in the French Quarter.

Here are a few pictures of our tour through the French Quarter. Unfortunately we do not have a picture of us having coffee and beignets (a delightful pastry smothered in powdered sugar) at Cafe Du Monde.

The following three pictures are of St Louis Cathedral on Jackson Square.
