T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,569 #1 Posted April 18 We went to Baton Rouge, and ended up driving to New Orleans to the WWII Museum. There are a lot of exhibits, displays, photos, etc. of the war, both the Europe and the Pacific wars. I didn't really take any pictures of some of the interesting stuff, it was so crowded it was hard to take clean images without a bunch of tourists in front of them. It was busy and crowded. I did take some, more as an afterthought, and of the larger displays. They even had displays of what homes in America would have looked like during the war, I.e. kitchen with war time appliances, and a living room complete with a radio next to a fireplace, I.e. Roosevelt's Fireplace Chats. BTW, it isn't cheap including the parking. It's close to the Super Dome in the business district of New Orleans. 4 4 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beap52 1,198 #5 Posted April 19 I find history much more interesting than when I was sitting behind a desk awaiting for the bell to ring so I could head to shop class. Thanks for posting the pictures that looks like a really interesting museum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
