We took the shuttle into town for our last day in NOLA. After checking the time for the jazz pianist at the National Jazz Park we took a carriage ride through the French Quarter. We had planned to have a muffuletta at Central Grocery, but our tour guide suggested Napolean Restaurant as having better muffulettas and also red beans and rice which would take care of the last two items on our must eat list. The highlight of our day was the jazz pianist the the NPS. He talked to us about music development in New Orleans and playing and singing to demonstrate the progression of the different forms from gospel to blues to jazz. We stopped by the piano bar at Pat O'briens and listened to the performers before returning to our trailer to prepare for the trip to Houston tomorrow. Did I mention that we stopped for a beignet before taking the shuttle back? That's four days in New Orleans and three trips to Cafe du Monde for beignets.
