Our days in New Orleans!

St Louis Cathedral.

We’ve heard that if it's anything you got to do when you visit New Orleans is to explore the French quarters, Vieux Carré. We decided to walk through these quarters and it was really nice and cozy. New Orleans felt very… Hmm.. European! These quarters were really old and while we walked through them we just inhaled the history of the city. We bought some ice-cream and just chilled. 
Then we walked down to St Louis Cathedral, it’s the oldest cathedral in North America, that’s cool! The cathedral was beautiful, it looked like a castle from a Disney-movie or something… We were there and looked at the beautiful architecture.
In the evening Rebecka and Louise really wanted to visit a place called The Snug Habor. It’s a restaurant and a jazz club, so we went to The Snug Habor, ate some food and enjoyed the music. It was really nice actually and the music was really good!

The day after, we decided to try something that none of us had done before. We wanted to go with a steamboat. That’s something you got to do when you visit New Orleans! It felt like we were people from the 19th century. The boat was so cool. Louise said that it felt like she was in the music video from the band Culture Club. We didn’t know what she was talking about, until we got back to our hotel room and she showed us this video.


She was right! It actually felt like we were these persons. 

When we got back to our room, we ate some lunch and then Lena reminded us about the museum! We had totally forgotten that and we decided to go there anyway because we had time to do it.
It was fascinating, but sad. We met a guide that told us about everything…We learned a lot and it was so much to see.
However, we do recommend visiting this museum if you are in New Orleans.
We also wanted to take a look at the Super Bowl arena too, but unfortunately we didn’t had time for that.

Well.. That’s what we’ve been doing here in New Orleans. Peace out!
/Nathalie, Louise, Lena and Rebecka.
