We had originally planned to spend the day in Hattiesburg, MS, but our contact there who was going to open the archives for us and speak about the Black Panthers was unable to make it. So we spent one more day in New Orleans. We visited Louis Armstrong Park (still closed from hurricane damage but soon to re-open as the site of the National Park Service's Jazz Historical Site), Preservation Hall, and the NPS's current Jazz Historical Site at its temporary location on North Peters street by the river.
I have no good pictures from the day, so here's a personal one of me at Cafe du Monde with the world's (or at least New Orleans'!) best cafe au laits and beignets.
