| Greeting from N'Awleans Y'all
By 'eck, it's another city that never sleeps. We've spent two days in the capitol of Louisiana, been up the river, to the zoo, aquarium, IMAX, on a mule drawn buggy ride around the French Quarter, on a tram through the city, and done a walking tour of the St.Loius No.1 Cemetary. Bourbon Street here, named for the French family rather than the American whisky, is a 24hr party hole, half the bars don't even have seats, you just buy some form of foul cocktail (hurricanes/hand grenades etc) and stagger off to the next bar. Alcohol casualties can be seen at all hours. We dined last night at Ralph&Kacoo's a cavernous seafood restaurant that seats 650 covers! In my quest to consume any strange creature placed before me, I had 'blackened' alligator before a fairly normal main course of catfish and soft shell crab. I've jus spent an hour at a live jazz bar, I'm not mad for jazz, but I like almost any live music, plus the beers were 2 for 1. Last day in NO tomorow, then on to New York, did I see snow on the weathr forecast?l |

I've been to all sorts of nice places, home and abroad, I've met all manner of good folk, but I'm a child of the Dales, of the hills and streams, the moors and rocks, Yorkshire's in my soul.
