Only a day after getting home from Florida, John and I hopped a plane to New Orleans to see BYU in the Sweet 16. Eating at LUKE on our way to the game
Slurping oysters- YUM!
So sad to see BYU lose:(
The next day we had beignets at Cafe Du Mond for breakfast
This is city is a party non-stop. We saw several parades goings by at any given time of day on any old street and bands blocking traffic to perform
Then we took the trolley to the Garden District to check out the old, swanky homes and a wander a cemetery. All the crypts are above ground because of the water level in New Orleans. Super cool
Our last day I put together a walking tour of the French Quarter that including seeing the home where the Louisiana Purchase was signed, the home of the most famous New Orleans architect, a walk through the French Market, and a visit to the Voodoo Museum
That afternoon we went to the Elite 8 game, even though it wasn't BYU (we still had tickets to it) and after dinner we hurried home before dark to miss the partying that was sure to turn ugly! We must be old and boring! It was a great trip and a fun city to check off my list.
