Destin - Part One - New Orleans

We drove to New Orleans on Saturday and stayed the night. It was a long drive, but so worth it when we got our Po'boy from the hole in the wall bar that Andy knows about. He craves these things. We did NOLA very quickly that morning and then got back on the road...here are a few fun pics of NOLA...

Cafe du monde...fried dough with sugar...doesn't get much better


Parker enjoying the fried dough...healthy :)


Houses that line Pirates Alley


Andy and Parker in front of Pat O's...no, P did not have a Hurricane


Parker's debut on Bourbon Street


Ok, and I just have to say that I have a love/hate relationship with NOLA. I always love going, but I am always happy to say goodbye. If you notice in some of the pics, I am wearing flip flops...the appropriate footwear for the beach, right? Well, apparently I forgot that it was NOT okay to wear them while walking down Bourbon in the morning right after they have "sanitized" (aka sprayed water on all the "yummies" to re-wet it all). Thus, my love/hate relationship.

Destin - Part 2 - coming tomorrow...
