Here's me and my good friend from college, D.J., at a restaurant that you may recognize from The Great Chefs of New Orleans program, Nola. I had the chicken, he had the fish.
This is a photo of the reputed burial place of Marie Laveau, the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans in New Orleans' oldest cemetery, the St. Louis Cemetery No.1. The tradition is, if you want someone powerful in Voodoo to assist you with something, and they're dead, go to their gravesite and draw three Xs on the tomb. When your problem has been resolved, you place three circles around the Xs. It kind of gives you a love and kisses feeling in the midst of death.
Here's me at another cemetery just down the road from the plantation we visited. I'm just checking to see if anyone's left. But apparently, they got away.

These pages proved invaluable to me on my
trip!
