Crazy New Orleans

Made it to New Orleans and have plans to spend a couple of days here.  Yesterday we played tourist and went to the River Walk, the French Quarter, ate beignets and did a little bit of drinking in some of the bars.  The picture is of our host at Buba Gumps restaurant.  It was crazy now, I can't imagine what it's like during Mardi Gras.  Today, Sunday, naturally, it was important that we find someplace to watch the Green Bay football game.  The closest place we could find was Hooters, so the game was good, they won, and there was lots of other scenery to look at as well.

The weather is getting better.  It's definitely easier to deal with than what we left at home.  However, it looks like the temperatures are back in the 50's in Bismarck.  Looks like the weather is going to be good for the Thanksgiving week and it should get better and better the further south we get.

We will leave tomorrow for Panama City, Florida, and then on to Cedar Key, Florida the following day.  We've been trying to keep our drives to between 300 and 400 miles a day.  No marathon driving since we don't really have an where we have to be by any particular time.  At least not at this time.
