I've been mulling this over for a few days, but finally I decided that I will post some pictures from our trip. Not to emphasize the contrast between BEFORE and AFTER, but to remind everyone how breathtakingly beautiful this city used to be... and reinforce the hope that some day it might look like this again...






Our hotel, in the very heart of the French Quarter...






Some of the famous poetic balconies in the same area...


And some random loveliness in the courtyard of a cafe...


There will be more. We have over 150 pictures. But no worries - I only intend to post some of the best.;)

Lovely! I have a shot of that same house (4th one down) as my wallpaper right now. The courtyard is at the Royal Blend on Decatur. :)

I feel like I am going to cry now.

Don't cry, please... French Quarter didn't suffer as badly as some other areas... it will be back in all its glory. And until then, let's cherish the memories... *hugs*

Wow, wow, wow the pics are great and very gently showing the French Quarters as I, the tourist remember them. Thank you for sharing, and I am so glad you are safe back home.
