I wanted to share some pics from our getaway with you. We had such a great time, just the two of us.
Monday night we went into Razzoo's and somehow... Mike ended up on the stage, singing with the band :)
We had beignets at my favorite place Tuesday morning for breakfast. WAY better than Cafe Du Monde, WAY.
We strolled around the French Quarter all day Tuesday and stopped for a coffee.
Later on, we went to Napoleon House for...
A drink and split some Boudin.
Wednesday morning we ate at Something Else Cafe (probably our favorite and best meal) Country fried chicken biscuit for Mike and Shrimp and grits for me. So good!
We took the trolley to City Park, which I didn't make it to on my last trip. It was so pretty (but really cold and windy)
The whole French Quarter was decorated for Mardi Gras! Like Halloween or Christmas decorations, only Mardi Gras. Super cool!
Wednesday night we went to the Pelicans game which was our first NBA game ever. It was fun and we had 5th row seats!
We had one last breakfast Thursday morning and headed for the airport. Our flight was delayed twice, due to mechanical issues with the plane, but we still made it home by 7:15 :)
The best part, was when we walked upstairs to our room, Landry had made us this sign :)
Thanks for stopping by today and I'll be back with lots of Valentiney goodness this week!
Wow looks like you 2 had a blast. It looks amazing. But looking at all that food has made me very hungry lol. So glad you had fun. :)

ReplyDeleteIt looks like such a fun trip and how nice that you two could get away just the two of you. And how nice to know how very much you were missed.....sweet girl!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute welcome home sign!! Your trip looked fabulous, it's so shocking to see city streets not covered in snow!! I bet the grandparents had fun with all that extra time the snow days provided!
ReplyDeleteLooks like such a great trip!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you had a good time.
And that sign from Landry is so sweet! :)
It looks like you had an awesome trip!
ReplyDeleteAJ always gets up on stage to sing with the band - I'm glad I'm not the only wife who has a husband who does this!
And now I need to go back to New Orleans for some different beignets, I've only ever had Cafe du Monde! Actually, I think I need to try all of the places you went, I haven't been to any yet, but all the food looked so good!
That sign from Landry is just adorable. How sweet of her!
Such a nice trip! Mmmm beignets! Glad you had a nice trip - and a great welcome home!
