Today was started off with a trip down to breakfast. I had a
fresh waffle with strawberries on top. It was so sweet and delicious. We walked
down to the French Quarter. It was about a mile from the hotel. I had fun exploring
the scenery to our destination. We went Jackson Square and waited on our tour guide,
Milton. While waiting on him to arrive, I made a new friend named Patsy Klein.
My friend was a mule, she was a sweet. She is intelligent and able to pet her. He
was a sweet man who enjoyed his job. He
took us on a tour of Congo Square. It was beautiful, I loved going to the
square. We then went to one of the cemeteries. It was surreal seeing all of
tombs in the cemetery. There are so many lives and history placed into just one
little block. They are all buried above ground. There were so many different
tombs and we were able to see how some people were segregated even in death.
After the tour we ordered a taxi to the hotel for my jacket and to take a small
break. From the hotel, we walked to the pharmacy museum. I was ten times more comfortable
when I had my jacket on. I tried macrons for the first time and they were great.
I had a chocolate one and they have been something I wanted to try for a while.
When we got done with the pharmacy we went and explored some art galleries. There
were a few pieces that were neat. There were tones of pieces that reminded me of
granite, but they were different. They had Mardi Gras masks connected to them also.
When we were done with the galleries, we went down to the Frenchman street, it
was fun to explore. Later we tried a couple of places and went to hotel to
finish the night.
