Acting Like Tourists

While we were in New Orleans we tried to do all the stuff you're supposed to do: we visited Jackson Park, St. Louis Cathedral, a cemetery, the Garden District, and the Benjamin Button house.

We walked down Bourbon Street with to-go cups,  listened to jazz on Frenchmen Street, had drinks at O'Briens, and ate beignets.

We toured a Dutch tallship, the Oosterschelde, and drove the 23 mile causeway across Lake Pontchartrain. 

We proudly learned how to pronounce Tchoupitoulas, étouffée, and beignet. (chop a TWO less, eh two FAY,  ben YEA)

Some days we just wandered around admiring the beautiful architecture and planning our next meal, but probably the best part of our excursion to New Orleans was enjoying it with these two people: Crystal and Don. We love you guys. Obviously.
