Going to Fairgrounds

[dylbert]

Welcome to Louisiana, Left Bank! Next week is Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras, which concludes carnival season.

Lots of things to do, see, & eat in most foreign-feeling city in United States.

World class zoo & aquarium, world famous French Quarter, Jackson Square, beignets at French Market, oysters at Acme Oyster House or Felix's, my favorite Quarter restaurant is Mr. B's Bistro @ 201 Royal, Bourbon Street for its funky atmosphere, Palace Cafe on Canal Street (widest street in North America), St. Charles streetcar...

At track, I enjoy sitting in Paddock Bar (if you can get seat/table). I'm partial to corned beef sandwich & fresh-squeezed lemonade at Fair Grounds.

Laissez les bon temp rouler!
