Louisiana: St. Louis Cemetary No. 1

So it seems like this trip home was more of a ghosts and goblins version of New Orleans as opposed to "Laissez les bon temps roulez!" The graves in New Orleans are above ground. Being that the city is below sea-level they had a hard time keeping the coffins from floating up to the surface. There are lots of beautiful things in the cemeteries but this one is really old and therefore really creepy. For instance. This is supposed to be a child serenely praying. However, upon closer inspection, she's really quite eerie.
This is "supposed" to be Marie Laveau's grave. The guy at the museum said she'd been moved to one of the "oven" vaults on the side years ago.
I thought all those triple XXX marking were some sort of evil working there but I asked the museum guy and he said they were wishes. You are allowed 3 wishes but that only the ones circled ones were wishes that had been granted (you'll notice that none of them are circled). He continued to comment that people don't wish for things that are appropriate. Kinda like praying, don't ya think?
Anyway. Back to the creepiness. Nothing say "not quite right" like a headless mother with her 2 headless children.
Or this disarmed statue... (ha, ha. did ya get the joke?!)
Looks like I was buried in the cemetery too.
Maybe this is where Marie Laveau is buried.
Okay. Now for some religion. Or, maybe just some pictures that are nice to look at...
