Our last day in New Orleans. 
Breakfast and a paper were delivered to our room again. Getting used to this!!
Mike bought his only souvenier - A New Orleans cap. And as you can see he likes to get on the right side of the local force.
My souvenier pile is growing. I am only buying small stuff but we may need to do a parcel home soon.
I have found some nifty souveniers here.
There are lots of tee shirts with writing on them. One of my favourites was "I am retired but I work part time being a pain in the arse"........now I wonder who would that suit???
Mike got a hair cut and was not impressed at having to pay $30.
We split up today, Mike doing a trek downtown to the WW2 museum and me hitting the shops.
I gathered up some wine and food and we ate at our hotel out by the pool. When we had finished we wandered over Café Du Monde for their famous French doughnuts. It poured with rain while we were over there.
With the rain came the thunder and lightening but it was still warm. Mike reckons it is like Darwin weather. We decided a swim in the pool would be good. Swimming in the rain is great. I haven’t done that since I was a kid.
Well that is New Orleans done.....we both loved this place. I am just really glad Mike got to see his zydeco band. He was so looking forward to it.
