The Old South (Night & Day)

Wow, what a night ! 3 new friends, a 1.25USD stroll in a cable car to the French Quarter, a walk in the Old NO, a funny delicious dinner with a first timer waiter (Jumbo Shrimp salad with mango and avocado),

some drinks in a bar with live music (Sweet Home Alabama, Hotel California...),


avoid some dodgy strip clubs, and a taxi back to India House Hostel, chat to plan the next day, sleep (4h in the morning, New Orleans Time, it means I've started my day 26 hours ago...)

This morning (10h00), with 3 other backpackers, we drove to a swamp tour, to visit the bayou on a boat:
Aligators (they are going to hibernate soon so way less impressive than in Southern Florida, but still)

Chatty guide & Fun

Old bridge

Calm bayou



then a nice lunch with old south cuisine (thin Catfish), followed by a nice sunset in Lafayette State Park



Tonight, Home Made Pasta (yummy), cookie ice cream and photo sharing session
Tomorrow: I'll leave early from the Hostel to Natchez / Vicksburg.
