Delivered cats, picked up food, delivered food, and picked up some more cats today. On the way to the first delivery the police had closed I-10 going into New Orleans. (Still don't know why) Drove through New Orleans and took the Canal street Ferry to Algers, for the first delivery and food pick up. Played tourist and took some pics from the Ferry.
Looking down the river toward Jackson Square. You can see the bell tower spire from St. Louis Cathedral near the center of the picture. Two steamboats that still ply the river are also in hte picture. (They are mainly for tourist trips)
Here is a closeup using my telephoto lens. The red and white building on the shore used to be the jackson brewery. It is now a shopping mall. ...
The Green and white building on the dock in this view is the Aquarium of the Americas with its IMAX theater.
New Orleans from the river. The building in the Center is the old International Trade Center with it's revolving resterant at the top.
To keep this dog related here are some dog pics.
