Bourbon Street




The bars on Bourbon Street feature live music daily, ranging from Jazz to Blues, Rock, Soul...you name it, you can find a band playing it.







And along with the music comes plenty 'o booze. Early in the evening many of the bars offer 3 for 1 drinks. The catch is you get it all at once...so they give you drinks in HUGE glasses. (or if it's a beer, you have to take all 3 at once...great if you're with a group...pain in the ass if you're solo)

And while Mardi Gras has been over for a few weeks...the signs still show all around the city. Beads are EVERYWHERE!

And the occasional exhibitionist still looms...

Of course, Bourbon is also full of all kinds of adult entertainment. There's got to be 15+ strip clubs all within a few blocks along Bourbon.

With all that booze and naked women abound, the bible thumpers have to show up to be sure you know you're going to hell. Why do they insist on trying to save us anyway?? Wouldn't they prefer to be in heaven without all the sinners??


Come night time, Bourbon is a crowded blur (in this case, it was simply the camera lens that was out of focus...although it did likely mirror my vision) Posted by Hello
