Sunday in New Orleans

I love to walk around the French Quarter in New Orleans on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. The weekend crowds are trickling out of the city and it gets quiet late in the day. Today was the perfect spring day after the rain cleared from the area to see the sights of the city.

As I turned the corner onto Bourbon Street a second line parade approached and quickly got the tourists to fall in line for the march down the historic street. Every day there is something to celebrate in New Orleans.
