Cafe du Monde
I got up at 6:00 am to start my day with a beignet and cafe au lait. Cafe du Monde has been a part of New Orleans’ French Market for more than 100 years. With more outdoor seating than indoor, it is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week closing only for Christmas Day and when an occassional hurricane passes too close to the city.

Ah yes, you can’t travel to New Orleans w/o visiting Cafe du Monde!
Now that I’ve been there? No, no you can not! 🙂
Looks like summertime to me!
Ooooooh, it was HOT and humid there!
Wow that’s awesome 🙂 Thank you for sharing!
Oh, no. Now my mouth is wartering for some biegnets.
They were pretty, darn good!
By the way, I have tons of relatives in the area, a niece going to UNO, a sister in Chalmette, and a brother, sister, and nephew over in Slidell (north shore). I went to Mardi Gras ever year from 1974 to 1993.
Wow! So then you totally know what I mean when I say “sauna” about the weather! I’ll bet it’s much nicer during Mardi Gras.
Not necessarily. I’ve been in 100°F Mardi Gras with 100% humidity, and I’ve been in 32°F Mardi Gras where the humidity in the air froze.
The unpredictable weather is just one of many reason why I don’t really like the Gulf Coast. Hurricanes, tornados, and flash floods are some of the others.
Well, if it’s stable, beautiful weather you want, you now live in about the best place I can think of for that! Ha!
