First Night in New Orleans

After 12 hours driving, we needed to have some fun. We headed to ACME
for a shrimp/catfish po'boy, followed by a hurricane at Pat O'Brien's
(gosh, this is sugary!). We ended the evening listening to a great
brass band -- Sunflower City -- at Donna's (picture above).

    I remember those hurricanes (it was a fun night)--but they are sweet and mine was in a huge cup like you get at McDonald's or Burger King...did you go to Bourbon Street or does it still exist??

    Marcelo, acho que o French Quarter nao chegou a ser afetado pela enchente nao (pelo menos nao diretamente). A minha impressao eh que a cidade quer esquecer o Katrina, eles tinham uma exposicao em um dos museus da cidade, mas ela foi retirada recentemente. Chegando na cidade a gente viu muitos negocios fechados, mas nao sei se resultado do furacao ou da crise...

    I know, Leandro and I shared a hurricane and were both pretty drunk by the middle of it. Yeap, Bourbon St. is still the noisiest street in NOLA, good memory!
