My Last Full Day (Outer)

I loved the food in the open air French Market. I had gator bites. They had a little bit of a kick in spice, but they were so good. The gator was on top of small bread slices. We went to get our medium readings at the Voodoo Authentica shop. I loved it, I would recommend it to other folks. The shop was very eye opening. I hope to visit again one day. After the readings we went to the Voodoo Museum. The Voodoo Museum is in a small house and filled with so many artifacts. I could feel so much energy in this building. It was more of a positive vibe than a negative vibe. It was full of informative artifacts of the the voodoo religion. We had so many different types of tours about the religion. It was so much better to see some of the the artifacts. It told the story better than just hearing it from a story. I am glad that we went to the museum. After we left the museum we went to back to Jackson Square. We saw a lot of street performers dancing. They were extremely mind boggling by the way they moved their body.
This has been an amazing trip. I love being able to visit and learn as much as I can. This is a city of much beauty as much as it having an ugly side. The city unlike others embraces the ugly. The city acknowledges the tragedies by honoring them in museums and history. 

Free Exploration (Inner journey)

Today was our free day. It was so amazing to have the ability to sleep in if I wanted to. I did not though because I could not sleep. I was able to go to breakfast on my own. I was able to be independent and sit and think. Sitting by the pool was extremely relaxing. I was able to think about my experience in the time in New Orleans. I thought about all the people who dress the way they want to. I dressed the way I wanted in a beautiful dress, but I did not wear make up or do my hair. I love this city, I have so many emotions. There are some good and some bad energies in the here.
I met up with some of my new friends in the hotel lobby. We went to the Voodoo Authentica for a medium reading. It was very invigorating and some closure. Charlie the medium is very good when it comes to predicting my life. He is very good. He told me about my love life and my future career.
He talked about some things that are very true about my life. He told me I like to be ten steps ahead. He also said I need to try and live in the now instead of the future. He is right I should live in the now because if I don't I may miss too much. I think that while in New Orleans people should visit a medium at Voodoo Authentica, they are very kind and great. I need to thank my ancestors for leading me to where I am today. I think that I am better than when I first came here.
I loved being here in the Big Easy, but I miss being home with my family and my friends.

Sunday Fun Day(outer journey)

Today we went through a lot of the city. We went a haunted history tour, the Presbytere, and the Cabildo. The Presbytere was a beautiful building full of hurricane Katrina and Mardi Gras history. The outfits were very beautiful and colorful. It had a history of the outfits, floats, and the crowns. It showed how they entertained the crowds. The Katrina half was very powerful. The museum had many videos of what happened and then the aftermath. The video in the museum with a dog drowning made me super depressed. One exhibit showed what the hospital staff did during the hurricane because this is when people started to loot the hospitals for drugs and supplies. The Cabildo had the New Orleans history museum half. I liked most of the museum, but the third floor. The third floor showed the evolution of the maps of the area and the line of the parishes. The first floor had a small history of everything from history to food. It was super cool to see the evolution of the musical instruments.
The second floor showed a larger history of the city.

It had more of the wars and building history of the city. When walking around the city we walked into this band and they are really awesome. They were chilling in front of the Presbytere and they were there every day this week. We walked along the riverfront to go to the hotel. The weather today was so amazing. The last thing we did was the haunted ghost tour. We walked through the city for this. The sun started to set and it started to get cold. I loved the haunted tour. It gave me an idea for what I may do when I come here again in the future.
