Your photos of New Orleans ...Congratulations Bill. <br />Your photos of New Orleans are sharper that that of Fairfax travel writer Barry Divola. His three page piece appeared in the The Age Sydney Morning Herald Traveller Supplement last saturday, December 6. Divola drove from New Orleans to Memphis on highway 61. En route he called in at a bar in Clarksdale, Ms, co owned by film star, Morgan Freeman. There he listened to blues musician Terry' Harmonica' Bean. Now i know you heard jazz in New Orleans. But your pix trumped his, Billy B.Richard Jonesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5487052844010639448.post-74660925620801153852014-12-04T08:32:25.571+10:002014-12-04T08:32:25.571+10:00Strange how we can easily walk so far and for so l...Strange how we can easily walk so far and for so long when we are on holiday!

His doctor said the walking he done daily in Europe had improved his health no end and the doctor took him off one medication. Of course he has not kept the walking up once home.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5487052844010639448.post-3697965097444662722014-12-03T12:30:21.744+10:002014-12-03T12:30:21.744+10:00DIANE!!!!

My sympathies to poor Bill.<br /><br />No surprise that nothing was in action during the day on Bourbon Street. <br />It only caters for night life.<br /><br />My God !!!!! You'll both sleep for a week if you are doing the MSY/LAX/BNE in one trip! Maybe a double dose of<br />ear-plugs might be advisable. Have you checked your DOB's recently??? "Spring Chicken Hood" has long gone.<br /><br />25 years ago I did the BNE/SYD/HNL/LAX/ATL in one go!!!! 34 hours plus! Arrived ATL as "fresh" as a new born colt.<br />4 hours later in bed from exhaustion for 24 hours - my great hosts went into panic and got the doctor from across the street to check on me - conclusion "total exhaustion" and just let him (me) sleep.<br /><br />Thanks for the Brennan's photo. I spew that I didn't research on my visit about it for that famous breakfast.<br />You had to book well in advance!<br /><br />Start peeling the extra clothes off as soon as you depart LAX! It is "wonderfully" humid (saunaville) here.<br /><br />Cheers and thanks for the wonderful coverage of the trip - safe travels.<br />ColinHuggybearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17517411617275367396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5487052844010639448.post-85568351070576748052014-12-03T09:50:17.491+10:002014-12-03T09:50:17.491+10:00We had fun on the street cars and you did well wal...We had fun on the street cars and you did well walking.
