Our awesome trip to New Orleans

We just got back from 5 days in New Orleans. It was simply awesome.
- we had greatfood - commanders palace, lilette, majoria commerce, Muriel's, cafe du mond, royal house, palace cafe, Felix. From oysters to crawfish etoufee to crabmeat cheesecake to pecan crusted drum, our tummies were in heaven although a few pounds heavier
- we met up with old friends unexpectedly. Jaime reconnected with a college friend, Jen, whom he hasn't seen in 25 years and we also met up with our good friend Vic who lives in miami but happens to be in New Orleans for work
- got our party on. I think we were nice and lit about twice per day with naps in between. Our favorite bars were. Pat obriens for the Hurricanes, razzoo in bourbon for the phunky monkey live band and the awesome DJ another night, and lastly goldmine on St. Peter's and dalphine, a local favorite with flaming dr peppers and great dance music for all.

I think we will be back. Jen mentioned she can get us on a Mardi Gras float if we ever want to. We may have to take her up on that. She is on the muses float. We hope our old and new friends will visit us in sf.
