New Orleans
The city that care forgot.
Jazz streams out into the moonlight.
French doors open to the night breezes,
sweet olive scents the air. Nearby there is
laughter, a cork popping, and cafe brulot
aflame. New Orleans lingers on the
threshold between the Old World and the
New, between history and legend.
Welcome to New Orleans.
Here, in this little corner of the American
South, where European traditions blend
with Caribbean influences, the history is
as colorful as the local architecture; the
food is the stuff of legend. Haitian
and African Creoles developed an exotic,
spicy cuisine and were instrumental in
creating jazz and Zydeco.
Our street names are French and Spanish,
our Creole architecture comes in a
carnival of tropical colors, and our
voodoo is a Caribbean import. The magic
is irresistible.
A cultural gumbo, we celebrate our
differences. In fact, we celebrate almost
anything in the Big Easy. We have a
saying: LAISSEZ LE BONS TEMPS ROULER --
LET THEGOOD TIMES ROLL. A reminder of
our french heritage, a way of life that
began three centuries ago.
