We headed into New Orleans and we drove on the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway which is approx 24 miles long. It is unbelievable how big the Lake is (see picture above)and the waterways that connect to it have houses on stilts(see picture above) and they need a boat to get to it as there are no roads.....As we were driving into New Orleans and saw the Dome, we remembered during Hurricane Katrina people were housed there. Wow!! We drove around the French Quarter and down Bourbon Street not all as part of it was blocked off. They are decorating for Mardi Gras and the decorations were awesome(see picture above). Had a hard time to find a place to park but did get some masks for Bryanna, Sophie and Ryan....With Mardi Gras just over a week away, it is very busy there. Very much enjoyed our day there...
