Sorry about the delay in updates, we've been internet-less through our trek across the southwest.
The city gives off an amazing essence full of social and cultural history, and its residents exude a strong sense of pride even through the presence of poverty, corruption, and the devastation of Katrina. WHO DAT? (You’re proud of me right, Stacey?) Spontaneously dancing with strangers in the street to the sounds of an incredible local teenage brass band makes you feel like you’re part of something bigger. All of the culture jam packed into this city is incomparable. So fun to visit!
On our tour of the city, we make a stop at Storyland, where Matt and Quinn get inside Cinderella's pumpkin carriage.
One of the sustainable houses built by do-gooders for residents of the blighted Ninth Ward area of New Orleans, where many houses were wiped out by flooding from a nearby broken levy.
We got to explore a float den, where amazingly beautiful floats are made and stored for Mardi Gras and other parades. It was definitely my favorite thing we got to do.

A real live Bansky! I thought Matt was going to die.
We're headed out to Austin!
