Our First Trip: Part I

Well our first trip was an event filled one. In July of 2005, Shannon had her class reunion in New Orleans so we decided to go despite the fact that a Hurricane was in the Gulf. Dennis. Now we weren't really taking chances. We were ready to leave at a moments notice. We left for New Orleans on Friday, July 8th, at about 2:00 a.m. So we would be there bright and early. Plus we were so excited about going we couldn't sleep. Anyway, we got there and checked in to our hotel, The Bourbon Orleans Hotel. Our first stop was the Court of Two Sisters, where we met Shannons friends, Dr. Jenny, Jennifer, Cindy and Gene. Then it was off to Acme Oyster House for lunch. O.K., Now anywhere that serves Boo Fries, which includes roast beef gravy and cheese, can't be all bad. Now is when some of the rain started. After we left there, we spent some time walking around the French Market while soaking wet.
