Ah, yes it is life in the Quarter! On the street, above the street, by foot, by buggy. Strutting, strolling, at a trot, but certainly not at car-driving speeds. It's a carefree, life-in-the-moment, involved, smiling, comfortable time. If you're a people watcher or a people who likes to get watched, this is your stage.Life in the Quarter. Rouler les bon temps. Rouler. C'est la vie. After all, Louisiana was founded in 1699 --- on Mardi Gras Day: that's joie de vivre.
Mais oui! On va laisser les bons temps rouler!!! Il n'y a rien de mieux a faire a Nouvelle Orleans. :)

ReplyDeleteNice photograph, Steve. I like carriages and take them to tour cities whenever we go to one.
ReplyDeleteGreat picture, lots of activity!
ReplyDeleteI love this picture... The Quarter is one of my fav places and my carriage ride was wonderful- good memories with this picture.
ReplyDeleteA reall lively, vibrant image.
ReplyDeleteA belated congratulations on your Ist year.
The sky looks almost surreal in this photo, and I like how it contrasts with the carriage. I visited NO maybe ten years ago with my sweetie, and we're still talking about that trip.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great angle for this photo. I assume you were lying on the ground! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a great photo! I love it.
ReplyDeleteThat's French life indeed. We don't have to apologize for that as "our" President used to do so often abroad.
