Just wanted to share a little montage/poster of images I took on our recent trip to New Orleans. We had such a great time!! It wasn't too miserably hot and crowded. It was good to see it all back to life again, though I am sad to say the rest of New Orleans is not doing so well. Lots of folks still need our prayers!!
(All these photos were taken in the French Quarter or "Vieux Carre", btw)

Here are a few New Orleans links that you might find useful, fun and delicious:
Cafe du Monde - http://www.cafedumonde.com/
oh so very yummy. You can buy their Beingnet mix and world famous chickory coffee online as well as a host of other campy-coffee stuff!
Aunt Sally's Creole Pralines - http://www.auntsallys.com/
World-famous pralines and LOTS of New Orlens stuff (cookbooks, spice mixes, etc) available in their online store.
French Quarter Online - http://www.frenchquarter.com/
Your guide to all things French Quarter - nice interactive map.
Prince Conti Hotel - http://www.princecontihotel.com/
I highly recommend this little historic boutique hotel in the heart of the French Quarter - it was quaint, beautiful, clean and affordable - and though it is just 1/2 block from Bourbon Street, it was quiet and not creepy.
