Walking along Bayou St. John in the late morning we turned with the bayou up towards where Carrollton Ave. meets Canal St. In my frame of view was the bayou, relatively placid, and bridge where a mother was pushing her child in a carriage. In the distance I could see Carrollton Ave. and there was a street car coasting along, a few bicycles riding in opposite directions, cars driving by, and people walking. I asked for a pause in the conversation just so we could appreciate the dynamism of New Orleans on Sunday morning.
