A Hurricane and an Alligator Po-Boy.
An eye-opening walk down Bourbon Street.

Another Hurricane in a really big glass.
A great Blues band.
A successful run at a Craps table at Harrah’s, plus free beer.
A midnight walk with a dog that approves neither of Bourbon Street nor of midnight walks nor of the intoxication that would cause his owner to think that a midnight walk down Bourbon Street with a 95 dog was a good idea.
A sound sleep.
An all-morning walk in and about the French Quarter.
Antique store window shopping.
Three beignets with a coffee.
A nice conversation with a couple from Ohio.
A quick stop at a a bayou next to the highway leading out of town.
20 excellent hours in New Orleans.
Marnie, Mike, Melissa, and Don.

So you’ve been to the famous Pat O’Briens for Hurricans! Joe and I could not walk after leaving there.
