New Orleans


At the end of May, I went to New Orleans to attend ISCAS, the International Symposium on Circuits and Systems, a very big conference on electronics. The conference was very interesting but here I want to talk you about the city of New Orleans.
New Orleans is the capital of Lousiana. It was a French and Spanish colony before becoming a USA state in 1803 (Napoleon needed money and sold it to the USA...:-P).
There are all the typical things we know about the south of the USA: the Missisipi river, cotton plantations, beautiful colonial houses, black people, jazz... I will give you more details and show you some photos very soon... big kisses

Si, es una ciudad muy interesante, y muy divertida. La calle Bourbon street llena de locales y restaurantes y de gente bebiendo y de fiesta. Parece estar en España!!
