In it the main character Ellina lives in a shotgun style (modified) house in New Orleans, Louisiana. I've found a picture of a similar home...although I don't think her's is pink. I would totally live in this sort of house! Heck! I'd even leave it pink!
I also included a picture of the French Quarter! I've totally been to this place too! :) I love New Orleans!
LOVE that building in New Orleans! When I went in 1999, Anne Rice still lived there and I got to see her house when we did the Garden District tour. I have the pictures somewhere. It was awesome! I loved New Orleans, but our visit was so short. I'd like to go in the winter when it's not so hot and stay for a week!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I'm going to try to do mine tonight or tomorrow.
I'd never heard of a shotgun house, leave alone seen one! It looks interesting, though I have trouble with the bright pink...:D
ReplyDeleteOK, I love the pink house. Maybe that is where John Cougar got his inspiration for the song?
