Introduction

First I want to say thank you for taking the time out to read my blog. I want to reiterate that I want you to get a better understanding of what is going on in New Orleans so that you may consider it once again as a viable place to take a vacation. We went on a tour of the city. We visited areas that were directly hit by Hurricane Katrina. During the tour we only stopped once for a bathroom/food break. When we were passing by the locations we could not get off of the bus to take pictures. The pictures that you are about to view on my facebook page in regards to the devastation show only some of the devastation that took place. I did not feel that it was necessary to bog down the reader with devastating images that we have seen unfortunately too many times. If you really want to see more images like that, I have recommended some literature for you to read. I hope that this blog provides enough curiosity to make you want to visit New Orleans for yourelf.
