I love the place. Fell in love with it the first time I stepped foot in it and it instantly became my very favorite place. I have stayed at the Inn on Burbon Street, the Hotel St. Pierre, the Dauphine Orleans, the Place DeArmes and the Astor Hotel. Every one of them wonderful. One of the most memorable times there was at Halloween. I flew down on Halloween, earling evening. The plane ride was a blast, lots of people dressed up for halloween. I went to attend Ann Rice's Halloween party at St Elizabeth's. It was completely awesome. There is nothing quite like the French Quarter. I absolutely love it in the fall but have also visited in the summer. It's quite hot and sticky there in the summer but sitting in one of the many cort yard bars in the evening listening to great music is wonderful at any time of the year. I am just sick about what has happened there. My SO has never been there and it depresses me to think he may never get to experience the same great city that I did. It will be rebuilt I think, but will it ever be the same?
