The Roosevelt New Orleans

After leaving cold rainy gray Washington State, we were  greeted with warm sunny torrential rains in Nola.  Well, at least the rain is warm, dries quickly, although very humid.  After settling in, at the Roosevelt, we headed for a day,  full of adventure, seeking, beignets, and chicory coffee. Sure that all would be found at the Famous French  Market

The sheer beauty of the Roosevelt Hotel is unbelievable.  Please pardon my camera skills, because I haven't come close to capturing the full spectrum of the hotel's elegance, beauty and sparkle.
My breath was taken away  many times, as I strolled, gazing at artwork, while being mesmerized by the crystal chandeliers.
