Jackson Square


Jackson Square in New Orleans, Louisiana is one of the most wonderful places to visit. I love the feeling of history you get when you stand in the shadow of St. Louis Cathedral in a place that has not changed much since the Spanish and the French claimed this portion of America. The surrounding square is a small taste of what New Orleans is, it holds clowns, artists, Tarot Readers, and Fortune tellers… it is also surrounded by wonderful shops selling everything from pralines to alligator souvenirs. I had a chance to visit this wonderful place yesterday, I have seen it many times… but it never ceases to amaze me.
