It is too hot today (at least 40 degrees with 90% humidity). We caught the tram into the center of town again this morning. We walked down Canal Street to the Mississippi River. We then sought shelter in some shaded markets before heading into the French Quarter. There is beautiful architecture all through this area – reminiscent of what I have seen previously in France.
Lunch, and shelter from the heat, was done at a café called Angels.
We kept wandering after lunch, back into Bourbon Street and the surrounding shopping area before getting back on the tram back to the hostel for a siesta and air-conditioning (mmmmm!)
We went out for dinner at Samuel’s, a pub 3 blocks from the hostel. We stayed on for a few drinks afterwards and watched a boxing match on the big screen.
