The Garden District

Day #48
Tripometer: 6155.2 miles
Oil Change #2

HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY RACHEL BIRCH!!!

Today I went on a tour of the Garden District. This is also and old part of the city but it is more American than French or Spanish. I saw some very incredible houses and learned that a lot of famous people have lived there at some point in their life (Cokie Roberts (politics), The Mannings (football) and someone from Nine Inch Nails (music). The tour guide was a wacko. He has lived in New Orleans his entire life and was once a police officer so he had some very funny stories to tell in between telling us about the architecture.
