Izibane ezinomtsalane zindala kule ndlu, ibe ukuze kubekho amatheko acocekileyo, sineeseti epheleleyo yaseFransi yaseTshayina. Indawo yokugqibela kwicala lasekhohlo lendlu esemaphandleni mhlawumbi lelona gumbi lihle kakhulu kule ndlu, ikhitshi laseCreole.

Ngoko nangoko iFrench Quarter, iFaubourg Marigny yaphuhliswa njengesixeko sesibini ngo-1806, kwaye yayiyindawo yokuqala yembali ukususela kwiVieux Carre. Inomculo omhle, ukutya okumnandi, kunye nomoya waseNew Orleans.
Kufuneka ufake inani leendwendwe zakho ngokuchanileyo njengoko ixabiso lethu lixhomekeke kwinani leendwendwe ekhayeni lethu. Isixeko saseNew Orleans sikwafuna inani elichanileyo leendwendwe ibe ngenxa yokuba siqeshisa ixesha elifutshane ngokusemthethweni, siyayithobela yonke imithetho nemimiselo yasekuhlaleni. Ukuba ufika kunye neendwendwe ezininzi kunokuba kubonisiwe ekubhukisheni kwakho, uza kuhlolwa ukuba uza kubhataliswa imali eyongezelelekileyo, uza kuphulukana nedipozithi, ibe usenokugxothwa (ngokokubona kwethu) ngaphandle kokubuyiselwa imali.
Okokugqibela, ukuze ukhuseleke, nceda uqaphele imithetho yethu yasekuhlaleni Yokuqeshisa Ixesha Elifutshane eNew Orleans! Akukho ndawo iqeshisayo yexesha elifutshane esemthethweni evumelekileyo kwimida yeFrench Quarter yeentsuku ezingaphantsi kweziyi-28, ngaphandle kweeflethi ezikumgangatho ophezulu ezikwiBourbon Street apho iibhari neevenkile zokutyela zikhona (oko kukuthi, iibhloko ezinkulu). Ukuba uthatha ithuba lokuqesha kwenye indawo yaseFrench Quarter, usemngciphekweni wokuba isixeko sivale indlu ngaphambi okanye ebudeni bokuhlala kwakho- le nto inokwenzeka kuba abamelwane kwiKota baza kuyixela yonke into eyenziwayo yokuqeshisa ixesha elifutshane. Kuphela kweendawo ezisemthethweni eziqeshisa ixesha elifutshane esixekweni zikwizindlu ezingaphandle kweFrench Quarter (oko kukuthi, empuma ye-Esplanade okanye eNorth of Claiborne) kunye nezo zifuna umbuki zindwendwe ophilayo. Nayiphi na indlu engenambuki zindwendwe kufuneka ibizwe ngokushishina ukuze sikwazi ukuqeshisa ixesha elifutshane ngokusemthethweni- sisebenzisana neshishini. Ukuba ufuna indawo ekhuselekileyo, ekwaziyo ukuhamba ngeenyawo sicebisa ukuba uhlale kumzantsi weSt Claude, kumzantsi apho kukho umgca wemoto yetroli. Zive ukhululekile ukusithumelela umyalezo ngemibuzo malunga nemithetho yokuqeshisa ixesha elifutshane okanye inkxalabo yokhuseleko ngoxa uqeshisa eNew Orleans; sifuna ukuba ube nohambo oluhle kwisixeko sethu esihle nembali emlanjeni!
