Of course we would not miss a visit of a Voodoo museum. The museum at the Dumaine Street was small but there was a very impressive collection concerning wizard of Voodoo. An offering altar, stuff from everywhere, Voodoo-dolls, a living Python snake and a painting of Voodoo-Queen Marie Laveau.

We spent all day long in French Quarter until nightfall. At last we went along the Mississippi by steam boat "Natchez", where we had a beautiful view to the skyline of New Orleans.
