2/13/15 pen drawings, On the bus and in the French Quarter near French Market

We decided to scope out the Endymion parade route as my cousin's daughter was marching in it. The main reason we came to NOLA was to see the Muskego High School Marching Band marching in the parade. First we took the bus using our Jazzy Pass down to St. Charles and Canal street. Then later on caught the 48 tram that was really a bus because people were already setting up for the parades in the "neutral zone" (median) where the tram runs. A lot more people on the streets. More crowded than the previous day. At about 5pm we met Mike and Julie from Canal Street Church. They were such sweethearts. They offered to save us a spot for the Endymion parade in the family section of town near Carrollton and Orleans. We really appreciated that.



We ate at Brewery Bistro and visited French Market again. My cousin was looking for a specific Nola Mardi-Gras T-shirt with 2015 on it. She's a good shopper. So I went and did a little drawing of a building near the french market. There was benches to sit on. Seating was pretty good all over the French Quarter. It's quite small and very easy to walk. (I also liked the tourist area and welcome center in Biloxi MS)
