Thanksgiving in NOLA

12/2/2013

Where am I?

Well, I'm back in Texas now, but I was in New Orleans. I went for Thanksgiving, not Mardi Gras.

In this picture I'm far away from the French Quarter. I'm not posing with beads or parade confetti. I'm sitting on top of a cypress knee!

Audubon Park

It's hard to see me, but I'm in this photo. I love cypress trees and I love these wonderful knees, that grow up around them! I had the perfect spot for watching the ducks in the water and the people strolling by in the park. What a great place to be in the afternoon on Thanksgiving!

Road Trip...starting in Louisana

First stop, Louisiana!

It's hard to decide what to do when you only have 1 day in Louisiana. Visiting the French Quarter would have been first on my list. But I did that a year and a half ago. That was when Beth was still posing me in cute scenes like this...with the St. Louis Cathedral.

At least there weren't too many people around!

It was dusk after a drizzly day, or it would have been more crowded in the French Quarter. At least Beth is pretty quick when she poses me. I didn't sit long on this curved piece of railing.

What else do you do in Louisiana?

Eat of course! But there was no time on this road trip for crawfish boils! This was actually a year ago in Lafayette.
Those spices sting right through my fur anyway.

So what did I chose for adventure?

I thought about a visit to one of the old cemeteries, but lots of people do that. Instead I took a peek at the old 6 Flags which hasn't reopened since Hurricane Katrina. It was about 10 times creepier wandering around those old carnival rides than gravestones.

I headed straight for the ferris wheel!

It didn't look too good close up...but I found a place to sit!

The ferris wheel wasn't moving, but it was still fun!

I didn't exactly see Beth climbing into one of these things. I'd say I was pretty brave to climb on board, not far from the spray painted word, "Destiny".

This adventure rates pretty high on my list!
