While on vacation in 2003 my daughter and I stayed in the Garden
District. We had the pleasure of seeing and hearing the famous street
cars on St. Charles.

The 1891 Castle Inn is located in the Garden District of New Orleans. The
huge inn has reportedly had paranormal activity. I hadn't joined IGT yet,
but the inn being haunted was my whole reason for staying. Unfortunately,
we didn't experience anything.

While strolling through the French Quarter in September, we came upon this
wonderful puppeteer. He has a small speaker behind him and is playing
music. The puppet has a guitar that he is "playing". This is exactly the
type of entertainment I expected to see in the F.Q. Submitted by: Misty W |
One of the many tours offered in New Orleans was of St. Louis #1. I fell
