Day 3 in "Voodooville"!!! Be Happy

Today's breakfast was an awesome chicken schnitzel from Johnny's Po-Boys. All be it, not your typical bacon & eggs, but good tucker none the less.

It was just the start for the 3 ½ hour Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve walking tour with the National Parks Service Ranger – Danny. The walk starts at 9AM every morning from the French Quarter Visitor Center. Numbers are held to only 25 for the tour and there is only one per day, so get in early.

The rest of the day was spent just driving around New Orleans and taking it pretty easy. I happened upon New Orleans Harley-Davidson and found the bike that Jesse James (from West Coast Choppers) built on the "Motorcycle Mania" tv show and then ridden through Mexico. It turns out that the owner of the Harley shop is good mates with Jesse and has 6 of his bikes.

Dinner was had a Honduran restaurant called Jazz Taco. It was cheap, wholesome and filling and well worth a visit as it was all that and some.

Tomorrow I'm headed for Florida, so we'll see how that goes. Be Happy
