Today was Museum Day, with a visit to what is reportedly one of the country's top museums: the National World War II Museum.
( Today's Destination )
We're trying to get the hang of ordering breakfast from take-out places with enough lead time to realistically get the food. We did better today, but not a lot better.
( Daisy Duke's )
After a fairly leisurely brunch in our room, we decided that we would take a crack at the World War II Museum, bought a timed admission ticket at a time that looked like it might be a little less crowded, and set off to walk to the museum via Carondolet Street and the famous St. Charles streetcar line.

Our trackwalking done, we set out to the WW II Museum.
( An Afternoon at War )
We spent more than two hours at the museum, but eventually our energy started to flag and we made our way out. We briefly passed through the gift shop, but nearly everything there was made in China, which really annoyed Lisa, although it did not surprise her.
( Dodging Football Fans, Refilling Prescriptions, and a Bathroom Bother )
We really don't mind having our meals in the hotel room. It's relaxing, really, and we can watch videos on my computer thanks to decent internet connectivity.
Tomorrow is our last full day in New Orleans and thus the last full day staying in any city on this trip. We haven't made firm plans. We'll see how busy things are tomorrow.
