A day in New Orleans

New Orleans 026 The day started with a ride across Lake Pochatrain on a 24 mile long bridge then another 6 miles or so on the Pochatrain causeway after  that it was on to the French Quarter for a walk around town and to a Kiosk that sells New Orleans tour tickets, we bought a ticket for each of us and spent the rest of the day on a tour bus checking out the home Fats Domino and the above ground graves, a little eerie I must say, the devastation Katrina caused and some of the rebuilding going on . The trip home was a bit scary, first of all Gee Gee, our Garmin, couldn't find a satellite and we didn't know whether to turn right or left, it was raining it was rush hour and it was dark out making driving  very difficult, eventually, she did get "connected" and got us home safely, till now, Gee Gee was short  for Goofy Garmin but now she's Glorious Garmin, good night.
