New Orleans – Days 4 and 5

Yesterday I was fortunate to get a big conference commitment out of the way early in the schedule, plus we had a rather long lunch break.  A coworker and I booked it over to Jackson Square, which was lovely (and extremely hot, with no shade cover).  We walked through the St. Louis Cathedral, a different style than the one I went to in Buenos Aires but lovely as well.

The Mississippi River was right nearby, with large ships passing each other.  Later on in the evening I saw a bit of Fulton Street.

Tonight I’m going on a flashlight cemetery tour!  Then tomorrow I fly home. It’s been a great adventure these past couple of months, but I’m looking forward to getting back to a routine and spending a lot more time with my family.
