They Call It New Taloo

This week we went down south to Louisiana, USA.  The New Toulouse sims re-create New Orleans, Louisiana, in the historical period of 1890 to 1930.

The Estate is owned and managed by the incomparable Gabrielle Riel, owner of Radio Riel.  “Mis Gabi” has brought to life the city, the riverfront, the bayou, and the culture of Nawlins in the the Jazz Age.

I especially enjoyed (and appreciated) the region’s soundtrack.  Music from Radio Riel includes all the early jazz greats along with cajun, gospel and honky tonk. (Those that know me, know how I feel about this, as I wrote here. http://hubpages.com/hub/Soundtracks-in-the-Virtual-World )

The swamps, the rural homes, and backwater cabins, all are represented, as well as the gorgeous Garden District mansions, and the speakeasies and stores of te city.

This region does light roleplay.  However, with true Southern hospitality, they welcome all creatures. So…c’mon down, ya hear!
