a new park


We are always looking to find new parts of the city and in a city this large it is easy to find new little places we have never been before. This time we went across the river to the Westbank a little section called Algiers Point. There we found a park with a playground so we stopped to let Chance play. I really liked the new area we found it was quiet and seemed nice. For some reason I got a family vibe from it even though we did not see any other families out and about. It is still in the city of New Orleans just on the other side of the river from where we live now. You can take the ferry from the French Quarter and end up right there. Speaking of that the ferries are still closed due to the diesel fuel spill I am sure you all heard about. If not you can read about it here. Anyway Chance had a good time playing at the park. We also found something strange at the park. A big rock with words written on it but with plants planted in front of it like they don't want you to read what is on the rock anymore. Very interesting. This park just screams geocache but I had not looked ahead of time to see if there was one located at the park.
