October 2005 - New Orleans, LA #2
Daisy has sent a postcard from New Orleans.  She mentions that she was there recently before this trip and stayed on the Iwo Jima, but she seems to have forgotten that she visited this city years ago.  Perhaps with all the devastation, it is unrecognizable...
Mom/Dad -

What an interesting trip I had down to New Orleans.  This was actually my 2nd trip to the city with my traveling partner since Hurricane Katrina hit. We actually got to stay in a hotel as things continue to get better. Our 1st trip we had to stay on the USS Iwo Jima the 1st time.  The damage is devastating! Photos to come.

Daisy felt really bad about the devastation she saw there.  2005 was a horrible hurricane season.
