Anyone who has ever visited New Orleans French Quarter can relate to the numerous street vendors with their portable hot dog carts. On slow times when there's little on TV but reruns, I often turn on my computer internet site favorite Earth Cam New Orleans for cheap entertainment, checking out the live streaming action on the corner of Bourbon and St. Peter streets in the heart of New Orleans French Quarter, outside the world famous Cat's Meow Bar. You can see all manner of interesting human drift and flotsam flowing up and down the streets on this busy corner.

In early evening before dark the hot dog vendor always appears setting up his hot dog cart in the same strategic spot just outside the Cat's Meow Bar. Weekends are especially busy with tourists and vendors alike and night time is when the street action really heats, up although the French Quarter is popular seven nights a week. --Robert Cumming
