One of the main draws of New Orleans for my sister and me were the cemeteries. I always find cemeteries interesting; they're full of history and untold stories. Some people may find that strange (I don't care), but I think almost anyone would enjoy seeing the cemeteries in New Orleans. They're so different from what most of us are used to. The above ground tombs are beautifully haunting. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.
Later that evening, the whole family walked a few blocks from our hotel to Pierre Maspero's for dinner. I was intriqued by the history of the place; it was an old slave exchange and a meeting place for Andrew Jackson and his men. The food was good. I had my first Po-Boy. Walking back to the hotel, Bourbon Street was starting to come alive. We walked a small part of it just to see what it was like.
