New Orleans Remembered - Feb 2011

I went to New Orleans with my girlfriend Dawn in late February, a week before Carnival, for 4 days.  We were able to stay right in the French Quarter at a friend's condo - very centrally located to everything.  I finally had a chance to upload the photos.  Here are the highlights

- Oysters, oysters, oysters, yum - raw, charboiled, rockfeller style, all kinds

- big crab salad sitting on the 2nd floor balcony looking over French quarters on a sunny afternoon just chatting and catching up.

- Dancing the night away

- finding a lock smith at 4:30am in the morning (lost our condo keys oops)

- getting beads from strangers without flashing anyone (just smiling)

- giving away our beads to handsome strangers

- Dawn's expert bull riding skills

- cemetery tour (I know sounds morbid but quite interesting)

- walking around bourbon street (the bands on Sunday night were amazing in every bar)

- seeing some women over sharing themselves for beads

- the doggy parade (so cute)

- lobster dinner

- A wonderful hotel night stay (since we lost our keys the night before)
