Guest guest Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 My daughter visited New Orleans once and wandered all over the city by herself. She had a marvelous time and found everyone very friendly. Later she had people tell her that it was a stupid and dangerous thing to do because New Orleans had a very high crime rate. She was so glad that she didn't know that fact. I feel that her openness and loving heart and total lack of fear protected her. Maybe that's what happened to you when you toured Cabrini-Green.
