Photo Friday: the people of Crescent City

NO_FrenchMarket3I snapped these first few just as the French Market was being set up for the day.  We mistakenly thought we could beat the sweltering heat if we took a walk very early in the day.  It is fun to watch the city wake up, but I still had to take another shower.

      Just like “The Big Easy,” “Crescent City” is a nickname for New Orleans. I think it may have something to do with the bend in the Mississippi River there?

      Thanks, Paula. People’s expressions can be vary telling when they think nobody’s watching, don’t you think?
