Mississippi River - New Orleans

I am always drawn to the water. The river is low at this time of year, until the Spring thaws start to feed water in from the northern rivers.  There is a walkway along the river and it creates a nice place to bike, jog, and walk.

Wooden stairs lead down in to the water, or river's edge,
depending on the time of year and water flow.

This is looking west towards the center of the city
and the highrise hotels.

This is looking east towards what appears to be
an industrial area.

This is looking north, away from the river,
and back at the St Louis Cathedral.

This is directly across the river.  There appears to be
a nice long log laying in the sand as the perfect place
to stop and take in the scenary.

This shows how nice the walkway is, paved with bricks
and lit by tall lamps.
