CEMETERIES

New Orleans has some AMAZING cemeteries! They bury their dead above ground because the water table is high there (which you probably know but I thought I'd explain just in case). We went to a few different cemeteries (Lafayette, Greenwood and Metairie). They have some huge mausoleums with multiple family members in them.


The friend of the person who took our picture was a little odd so that's why we aren't exactly smiling. haha


Look at some of these incredible tombs...





I had to take this one since I'm a huge Gilmore Girls fan:


I giggled a little over the name "BLANK"
(not very reverent of me but I couldn't help it)

 There are 3 people in this one:
(how the heck did they do that?)
