Driving into New Orleans was an eerie experience. Once you get past the National Guard checkpoint - remember the city is closed and there's a curfew in effect (I have my Government badget - thank God that gets me through these things) it's odd to be driving in a major city with no traffic, no people, no lights for the most part and feeling by yourself. Odd!
