NOLA Part III & Graceland.

She is a million times cooler than me with her jelly sandals and pacifier::
In the visitor's center they have a map that shows the flooding from Hurricane Katrina::
Another highlight of our trip was a cemetery tour of St. Louis Cemetery #1. The above ground tombs are really, really cool. If you have one tomb, a dead body goes inside the top portion for 366 days and after that the bones are moved to the bottom portion along with many other family members and/ or friends. Such a space saver. 
Not all the tombs are covered under perpetual care. If the fee is not paid by the owners to cover this, the tomb is left to fall to pieces::
For the future corpse of Nicholas Cage::




baby bumpin' to lunch::
We spent a day going to the movies and the mall. The mall has a play area where grown ups are not allowed and a hand washing station that washes your hands for you.


Zara actually got to see her first movie in the theater- Secret Life of Pets 2. She sat through most of it and she thought it was so funny::

We also spent a lot of time relaxing at our airbnb/hotel. We booked through Sonder and had a great experience. I wish these rooms were available in more cities. We had a huge space, nice kitchen, rooftop pool, tons of windows and it was very modern. We played, made meals and watched tv together with no schedule. Some photos of our time in this place below ::




Normal day preparation for flooding::


On our way home we stopped by the home of Elvis. I actually took my mom here in 2012. Not sure how all those years have gone by since that trip::
FYI- John Stamos is your tour guide on an iPad.




Taking care of business, yeah::
