Just weeks before hurricane Katrina, I visited New Orleans for several days and this montage is a look back at the way life was before the hurricane.

  • Hey Waylon. I love New Orleans and have been many times but not since Hurricane Katrina. This video was taken with old photos taken before I owned a video camera or had even heard of YouTube. Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it. Merry Christmas to you and James! -Jim

  • Fantastic video! I went to NOLA every Mardi Gras for about 9 years straight when my BFF lived there. He was driven away by the hurricane, so I fear my visits hereafter will be few and far between. I LOVED the French Market. :)

  • Beth I did the same thing. I've been to New Orleans so many times I can't count them all but I haven't been back since Katrina. I took all these photos in my travel days before I ever heard of YouTube or owned a video cam. Thanks for watching. -jim

  • Probably a bit of prejudice on my part but I think this is my favorite of all your vid's. Great slideshow - thanks for sharing your photos.

  • If only I had a video cam when I took that trip. Of course that was before my YouTube days. Back then I was into the flickr photo site. Thanks for watching my stroll through your New Orleans before Katriana. -jim

  • Lucky dogs are SO good.

  • I agree Jay. Thanks for watching. -jim

  • Thanks Country! It helped me remember what it was like when I lived there. It will be back, if for no other reason, then we can't imagine a world without New Orleans. Laissez les bons temps roule... a nouveau
