new orleans: day 2, part 2 – dixie brewery
after a late lunch (think turtle soup and a 25 cent martini from commanders palace) and kicking around the apartment for a bit we headed off towards an old downtown brewery that had looted and then abandoned after katrina. our other roommate had been there a few days before and gave the advice to just keep heading up to the roof as you’ll get a great view of the city from an unusually tall perspective. done and done.
and with that we were out of light for the day and so it made perfect sense to head over to the fanciest bar in town and order up the signature cocktail of new orleans, the sazerac .

new orleans: day 2, part 1 – market street power
the rental house was located in the lower garden district and while biking around early the next morning i noticed a couple of large stack looming over the neighborhood. i had heard that the power station they belonged to had been abandoned for some time so a trip over to check out the situation seemed to be in order.

halifax grain terminal
on past trips to halifax, we had stayed right up the street from this grain terminal. this time we were on the other side of the city in the suburb of bedford. however, on a particularly nice afternoon we took a quick drive over to point pleasant park which sits adjacent to the shipping port and the grain terminal – after walking around the park for a couple of hours i stopped by to see what had changed in the past two years. from the looks of it, not much.
