When you visit Cafe Beignet you get to also visit the Musical Legends Park and I loved me some beignets so I visited it a lot.

While walking around the river walk in New Orleans I saw this cute restaurant, it wasn't open that early in the morning though.

Marie Laveau Tomb

A visit to New Orleans isn't complete with a visit to St Louis Cemetery #1 and the tomb of the Voodoo Priestess, Marie Laveau.  Many people visit her grave to give offering and ask for things. People draw three xes in the hopes their wish will be granted.

Filming in the French Quarter

IMG_8067

While we wandered the Quarter we kept coming across this posse of bikes and signs telling when filming would be happening in that area.

From what we were told this was for the HBO series, Treme - I am still clueless as to what it's about though, lol.
