)Feli had seen similar destruction back when he was growing )up in 
Germany,the results of bombings from WWII.

It was a little strange to walk through the wasteland that large sections of 
N. O. has been turned into. Growing up I had heard the stories and seen the 
pictures of the after math of the war and it was only slightly surreal to 
walk through such a landscape. One of the oddest aspects of walking through 
the 9th Ward is the near total silence. There are no animals to be found, 
except for a few crows and oddly enough gray city pigeons,which are more 
commonly found in cities.
