Okay, here are the last of the pictures from New Orleans. Enjoy!

This juggler was one of the folks entertaining us at the Mardi Gras party we attended that week.

                                         

A local artist draws caricatures of the guests at the party.

This girl on stilts had us all impressed with her ability to navigate through the party crowd without tripping over someone and falling down.

 

                                       

A New Orleans landmark: St. Louis Cathedral

 

Another popular building in New Orleans. It houses the Rivers Edge Restaurant and is across the street from the Cafe du Monde.

 

The aforementioned and world famous Cafe du Monde. The beignets are to die for! 

 

A freighter hard at work on the Mighty Mississippi River.

 

                                       

Tourists wait by the balcony of the Royal Sonesta Hotel on Bourbon Street for revelers to earn the Mardi Gras beads that they hold.

Hope you enjoyed the mini tour of New Orleans! Be sure to tune in tomorrow!
