Reflection #6 (Fourth Day of work)
French Quarter/Garden District.
Toured the French Quarter/Vieux Carre--dinner on Decateur, window shopping, Cafe du Monde, Jackson Square, St. Louis Cathedral, Bourbon St, Riverfront, Aquarium, Canal St.
This is the oldest neighborhood (300 years old) in NO--it used to be the original entire city.
Start at Jackson Sq. You can see the Mississippi River but you're above sea level. You can see the Cabildo, where the Louisiana Purchase was signed. The path on the left is Pirate's Alley which is where duels used to be settled at the first blood.
Lower Garden District? Stick close to Magazine St.
