Magical Mystery Tour

March 21, 2012 by Charlie London

by Charlie London
Like the Postcards from Home you see every Sunday at FSJNA dot ORG, the Magical Mystery Tour takes you on a ride in and around Faubourg St. John.

Below you will see an artist who consented to have her picture taken while painting in City Park. City Park offers a magical mystery tour of its own but you have to get up, get out and walk the sidewalks, bridges, and trails to see it.

Every Wednesday look for another part of the Magical Mystery Tour we live everyday here in New Orleans. Every city has something… but New Orleans has that magic and mystery around every corner that you just don’t find other places. Check back at FSJNA dot ORG every Wednesday to see what I mean!
