N'Orleans

I took a break from NY and went to visit a friend in New Orleans over the weekend. The weather wasn't that great, but we were too busy stuffing our faces with ridic food to notice. My friend is staying in a cute little house in the suburbs of New Orleans, about 10 minutes from the French Quarter. The houses and architecture all over New Orleans are amazing. I could never get tired of looking at the mansions with the over-grown trees covered in moss. The French Quarter is a different story, row houses with cute balconies, along cobblestone streets...The whole thing was like out of a movie.
