Final shots of New Orleans.

The biggest bummer about D and I's little sojourn was the crowds.  I'm not sure why the large number.  It wasn't a weekend or a holiday.  It affected my ability to take pictures.  There were so many people it was difficult to capture a sense of the architecture, except in small doses.  This explains the reason that few of my photos are sweeping.



These next few photographs are of one of the oldest buildings in New Orleans.  It's managed to survive a couple devastating fires in the area during the 19th century.  Built in the early 1700s, it belonged, at one point, to the French pirate Jean Lafitte.  






Au revoir, La Nouvelle-Orléans.
