Jackson Square in the French Quarter in early evening. Where tourists, beggars, and horses vie for control of New Orleans.

Bordering one side of the French Quarter is our old friend the Mississippi River, which we last saw in Minneapolis on our 2014 road trip. We’ve effectively now seen both ends of it. After dinner at the Royal House, we ended our day of too much walking with even more walking, checking out the art, the businesses, and the life teeming and scheming along its banks.

Right this way for the conclusion of Day Three of our trip!
