the great river road

Published: 11-07-26

Just a few (of very many) pics from my recent road-trip along the Great River Road. It was an amazingly good trip. And I believe I learnt to master a decent southern accent as well.

The beginning:

There were some weird things along the way:

Excellent antiques shopping if you like American vintage things:

Plenty of southern charm. There's nothing quite like a good porch where you can sit and mind your own business:

A visit to Memphis:

Southern hot tamales:

Lots of charming old buildings:

Like walking into Merlotte's ('True Blood'):

Lots of Spanish Moss, contributing to that 'True Blood' feel:

More southern charm:

New Orleans - well worth a visit. Unfortunately, many mistakenly believe that that the damage from Katrina is more extensive than it is. Im most parts, you can't tell that it ever happened. Highly recommended. Great cocktail bars, restaurants and atmosphere.

Voodoo dolls:

Great cocktails:
