DAY

New Orleans & Ghostly happenings...

Lovely relaxing morning by the pool, got chatting to a couple from California , John & Erin, while we cooled down in the refreshing water.

The shady courtyard is damp & humid, smelling of wild garlic.

Stupid boy , he will get wet in this rain !

We had a room change today we moved from 316 to 218 , so once that was done we went up to trash it & have some showers.

Lunch at the Coronet on Bourbon , hardly Haute Cuisine but a great view of the seedy daylight Bourbon Street.

Great place to people watch , they let special people eat here.....

Calamari in itallian salad vegetables, to share.

The rear of the beautiful Cathedral , at night a spotlight projects the shadow of this Jesus statue onto the back of the building.

Hollie & I went to do a little shopping , a massive rain storm started. While we were  hiding under the balconies these energetic musicians entertained a captive audiance.

Our view into the Cathedral square. A yound man played hypnotic Indian style music which we enjoyed.

And the other way a view into the maze of streets.

Wanting to make the most of our private balcony , we ordered in pizza & listened to the multiple ghost tours that stopped in front of our building , their spellbound audiances listening to a variety of different versions, of the alledged weird happenings in the buildings flanking ours.

Goodnight dear reader , we hope nothing goes bump in the night xxx
