New Orleans
December 18, 2004

We spent the first weekend of our vacation in New Orleans

Here are some shots of the characteristic houses


Street performers

St Louis Cathedral


Nice and symmetric


A lot of people around main square




Mississippi

A street car named desire

Bourbon street is the center of attraction (at night)

One of the four steam boats on the Mississippi

Waiting for departure

Full steam ahead


Enjoying the sun


Achtung: a ship is coming

That's close

Our sister ship

It's quite wide (and deep)

In the engine room

Walk through an old cemetery

These cemeteries are typical to New Orleans

The Garden District away from the party center

Like Dahlem in Berlin

Destrehan plantation house

Spanish moss hanging from the trees
