Lafitte (#80)

Ok, so I know I owe a lot of photos before this... but today is day 9 on the road trip and we found ourselves in Lafitte's Blacksmith Pub in New Orleans tonight, which is the oldest bar in the United States. All of the woodwork and brick is original and it is lit solely by candlelight. At 9:00 p.m. Mike (i'm forgetting his last name right now) started playing the piano. After ordering a drink we walked to the back of the bar and found they had barstools around the piano. We had a seat and stayed for over three hours. Mike was amazing, good-humored and willing to take requests. While expensive, it was a great night.

More photos from the trip to come. This has been our first night with real, working internet. Good night, and I'll try to update soon.
