New Orleans Day 2 Low 48◦ High 64◦F

Another day in New Orleans and I can see what attracts people to this place. It is a pretty city with lots to see and hear.

We went down to the French Market first thing this am. It is quite near the bay and the wind coming from the water made it that much cooler. After some time walking and visiting, we stopped at a cafe for a hot drink. It was 11am and there was a live band playing some Jazz music. They were really good too.

We saw lots and lots of wrought iron work on people's balconies. One of them even had 2 suites of armor standing guard on either side of the balcony.

Everything is geared to Jazz, including the Holiday inn appropriately called the "Clarinet"

They have  Trolley system in town and $3.00 gets you a day pass to go on and off as much as you please. These are very quaint with their wooden seats and leather straps to hold onto to.

We had very pleasant day but our feet our killing us from all this walking. We are currently back at the hotel, but we have a dinner date with Chantal and Germain for 6pm. I doubt we will be out as late as we were last night, but I thought I would post early just in case. Tomorrow we hit the airport at 7am so we better get some sleep. 

All our complaining about the cold here, I am certain we will be much colder tomorrow. We will only be in Canada for a week, but already we are dreading it.  Good night all
