STROLLING IN NOLA

 Everything in the French Quarter was walking distance, but riding this trolley was a fun experience!

 My first meal there: a Muffaletta 

 Stop sign. I had to look up Cannibal Kids. They're pretty catchy! (find them on soundcloud)

Horses everywhere! 

Apparently Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop was the oldest bar but I'm not sure if I believe that! Sadly they only sell drinks there, so if you're look for food, eat beforehand or after. Bourbon St. has the reputation of partying and drinking. I have to say while walking down Bourbon in both broad daylight and nighttime, that's true. 

Another classic of NOLA. This is a beignet (aka fried dough) and it's coated in powdered sugar! It's really yummy. The trick to eating this without making a mess is not breathing in or out while taking a bite. :) 

Raccoons at the Honey Island Swamp! I also saw boars and alligators, but this guy was the cutest! I'm surprised the tour guide gave him marshmallows to eat! I felt like Pocahontas around him. 

This is one of the many statues in City Park. Look at how toned he is.
