 New Orleans

We stayed 2 nights, so we really only had the one day to run around and sight see.  As we have all been there before, we weren't in a rush so it was a relaxed day.   Of course we stopped in for breakfast.  My friend commented that it was crappy coffee and over priced funnel cakes.   I still enjoyed it.

Here is a pic out the window while waiting for the elevator.  the 3 windows all the way to the right was our 1 bedroom apartment.  It was really nice.  They had several buildings tied together to make the hotel.  It was pretty cool.
Look down the hallway.

Tommy doing a photoshoot at the pool.  It was in a courtyard between buildings that made up the hotel.

The night before it was dark when we arrived and I thought this area was enclosed and it had low LED colored lighting and looked pretty cool.  I never looked up until the next morning to realize it was outside.

Shot of Jackson Square.  We didn't stray too far from here all day, as the building to the right of the church is a museum we spent 3 hours in, then had lunch nearby.

After the late afternoon swim, Lucy and I headed over to Latitude 29, a full on legit tiki bar in the quarter we had been wanting to check out for the past 8 years...

Midweek, it was slow, which was nice as we had the bar mostly to ourselves and a couple on their honeymoon.   They were nice to talk too, as we chatted alot with the bartender as well.

I forgot which drink this was, but it was good, lol.   We had a few each and called it a night....

Next day, we only drove about 3.5 hours to her cousin's near Mobile, visited with them overnight and then headed home the following day, getting home a day ahead of schedule as the car was acting up and Naya wanted to go to her sailing lessons.

Only after I got home and looked at the car again, I realized my mistake with the coil and fixed it.   It has been running good since.....and I fixed the blend door motor (had to pull the whole dash out, what a PITA).
