Katrina's Aftermath

This is how most of the city looked, especially in the Lakeview area, Midcity, and the 9th Ward.

The kid carrying the kittens attends Jesuit High School, where I teach English and Spanish. The school was also affected with almost 8 feet of water and many teachers and students' families lost everything. Many of our students, though, were absolute heroes rescuing people and pets during and after the storm.
