The Big Easy is going as well as ever following hurricane Katrina’s devastating flood of 2005. The following pictures illustrate New Orleans’ great food, street entertainment, and our third visit to the World War II museum. Unlike Katrina, after three great days in January 2014 the city was locked in the grips of a deep freeze which prevented any travel in or out. We were above water, but the interstates were flooded with traffic that did not allow traffic in any direction for two days. Relax and eat up!
