Arrivo a New Orleans in Louisiana
Fall 2007
We Arkahansas , the sale of cars is always visible ... huge fleet,
the edge of each small town even as Arkadelphia we are about to leave.
These fleets make me a little
sadness with all the fast food on the road.
The landscape from now on will be a little repetitive
we pulled over interstate ''which is as if it were
a corridor of fir and cedar ... moltobello ,
but too long ...
We enter the northern half of Louisiana
day, the landscape of North
does not change much compared to ' Arkahansas West,
that change, the population here is more diverse with the presence of many African Americans.
We would like to see something historic,
leave the main road to Alexandria and
for Nachitachez , but it all seems very new, just built, as if the centers, while retaining old names, they were gone and in their place there were new houses, a little anonymous, mostly single-family. The rooms are very modern exterior, but inside is passato.Forse keep the memory of a past way too quick but intense, that has had little about these people who seem ready to change.
Old photos, guns, horse sculptures, mannequins of Indians, checkered tablecloths and preparations for the celebration of Halloween , colorful gourds, hanging skeletons, colored lights and dream catcher ...
The feeling is that everything is demolished and rebuilt with no style,
urbanization is becoming a priority and cut the roots, perhaps too shallow.
I see many houses on wheels ... even a stone. The billboards advertise
prepared food and suggest ways to earn fast money "Do you Want to earn much money ?", Or invite you to easily get funding.
Louisiana descended from the north to south, toward New Orleans.
This state is also called " Pellican State" we speak English but you hear a lot about French and English, here use the term "parish " instead of " country" to call a country.
It 'a very populous state which is affected by both French and English cultural influence.
E ' become an interesting area, at some point in the history of unification of American States, especially in the presence of a major river like the Mississippi .
Appalachian Mountains to the east were transposed to a barrier between east and west in the States while possession of the port of New Orleans and the practicability of the river, passed over the problem of internal connections (I continue to study while Simone guide. ..
The capital of Louisiana is Baton Rouge and eat a good chicken fried ... More
through the south and the landscape becomes more swampy and tropical vegetation, we get more and more
the delta of the Mississippi and the Port of Orleans
come to town, passing on a narrow bridge in the middle of the lagoon, we begin to see farms and houses with large gardens and colonnades ... French bread, coffee au lait with bigne ', music in the street ... Europe and Africa are mixed with the dynasty of
New Orleans ...
City unforgettable and unimaginable after all these miles.
wonder and joy.
We drove 3200 miles. (5760 km!)
the French Quarter
I do blonde tonight! The weather is beautiful
temperature as well!
these wrought-iron balconies are wonderful
play jazz on the street
there is also tram here
the city is full of colorful shops
this shirt may have too many flowers for my dad!
street artist ... good eh! Building, maintaining the outstanding balance
necklaces glinting on the balconies become the game of the evening when they start from passersby who collect them and wear them ... Yes in French Quarter at night there is great rejoicing, singing all dancing crowd the balconies throwing necklaces and especially drink alcohol freely in the streets.
Across America 's strictly forbidden to drink on the street, who drinks beer is bottled in glass must be removed in a room and do not show themselves for not giving a wrong example, especially to children. In
BURBON Street in New Orleans you can drink for the road and this combined with the music of the premises along the street and the glittering necklaces around the neck of men and women, creates a colorful and whimsical, certainly bit excessive, but fun.
go by policemen on horseback and people continue undisturbed revelry, because in this way everything is allowed around the corner ... back to the rules.
many memories come to mind for each one hundred words that I write more ... I do sorridere.Ancora few days and we'll be Miami ... UAW !!
as they say here every two to three ...
