#63: The French Quarter (Page 634; 2nd Ed pg 796)

January, 2004: My friend, Lisa and I decided to head to New Orleans for a 3-day weekend. We found a good deal on air fare and neither of us had ever been, so why not?

The famous Cafe du Monde, located on the edge of the French Quarter and famous for it's beignets. It's a great place to soak in the sights, sounds and delicious smells of the city!
Verdict: Admittedly, this was pre-Katrina and I haven't been back post-Katrina, so I'm not entirely sure how much is in tact, but at least pre-Katrina, the French Quarter was fabulous and we loved it! The shops, restaurants and sensory images all around you were so fun!
