It's been a long 2 weeks since my last post. Felt like forever anyway. I had a GREAT trip to New Orleans to participate in the inaugural Mardi Gras Rock N Roll Half Marathon with my friends Karleen and Denise, and my cousin Leslie.
New Orleans is a BEAUTIFUL city, full of tastes, sights and wonder. We ate local exotic cuisine, sampled the finest libations, and saw the city from a local's perspective. Sure we cruised Burbon Street and had beignets at Cafe Du Monde - who goes all the way to New Orleans without visiting these hot spots - but we also took the causeway over Lake Pontchartrain and toured the Abita Brewing Company in Abita Springs, LA, we shopped at a little boutique on Magazine Street called Trashy Diva, and we ate alligator sausage and shrimp Po Boys at Parkway Bakery. I can't thank my cousins Ann and Leslie enough for their Southern Hospitality, and for showing us the "locals" flair of New Orleans. I am SOO ready to go back, this time with Steve and Travis!
