I am totally laughing my a$$ off right now!

NO, I did not play board games with Kellyanna. She may have played them with the green ferries, but I wasn't playing them with her. I promise anyone that comes down here, I will not make you play Yahtzee and UNO.

Oh and I didn't show her photo albums either; she begged me to but I wouldn't do it :lol:

That pic of Kellyanna by the water is at the Lakefront (Lake Pontchartrain).

Kellyanna is a trip and she really knows how to enjoy her surroundings...and to top it off, she knows where she got her shoes :lol:

She and Brad are great and it's nice to hang out with a fellow forumite!

p.s. can't wait to see what she reports next!

I was wondering about the baby albums and board games, thanks for clarifying. :lol: Glad you folks had fun.

The only reason we stopped at my parents' was so I could use the bathroom and while we did, we let Rudy do it too (he was at day care at his grandparents).

I am still laughing my a$$ off at Kellyanna's report!

It's really code for what we have REALLY been doing!

Our adventure continues...
Nothintolose and I made a trip to the SuperDome to purchase our Jazz Fest Tickets! YaY!
Image
Nothintolose is on the phone with California Girl letting her know we got her tickets!
Image
Next on our list was to enjoy some absinthe. So to the Old Obsinthe House.
Image
This once prohibited beverage is back. It is called Lucid. It is prepared with sugar and water to dilute the aclohol. It has a licorice odor.
Image
Nothintolose didn't drink any. I don't think it affected me that much.
Image
Image
Then we went to the holtel California Girl will be staying for JazzFest. We'll be hanging out there like this...

Here's my better half.

We're having a wonderful time here! Nothintolose is awesome and we are having a blast. She tried to get a game of Jenga going, but she could see I as not mentally prepared.

NO Fair!!!!! I want to play!!!!!
I don't like licorice though so I wouldn't want that drink either! I don't drink Jagermeister for the same reason! YUCKY!!!!

So Margo will be rolling drunks to get out of her hotel? :lol:

Coden - Lucid: http://www.drinklucid.com/ is out and available at the Absinthe House on Bourbon Street in the French Quarter.

I can tell you that the drink smells like salty black liquorice (sp?). Being that I cannot stand liquoirce, I was not about to try it. Kellyanna can describe it more if you want.

OMG! I'm laughing so hard! Kellee, you're NUTS! Can't wait to have some fun with you! I won't be partaking of anything licorice-tasting, either... I don't even like fennel! But, if it makes you see green fairies, Kellee, I'm buyin' you one! THIS I gotta' see! :lol:

Between getting Jazz Fest tickets and going to the Old Absinthe House, we stopped for a drink at The Carousel Bar in the Monteleone Hotel. The bar rotates (slowly) around the center where the bartender stands. Here's Kellyanna...
Image
I thought this was a cool pic too - Old New Orleans Rum and Cruzan just happened to be on the bar together - how neat is that...

Elizabeth! That picture of the bottles could be my counter at home! Because my teensy liquor cabinet is full, I have a bottle of Cruzan Coconut, a bottle of Cruzan Mango, and a bottle of Old New Orleans sitting there! LOL! But my counter doesn't revolve! Well, at least not until after the 3rd or 4th drink, that is! :lol:

We stopped at Cooter Brown's (the day we walked most of the way from the zoo to the French quarter !) and the Absinthe House (we needed a drink after that hike!) during our visit a few years back. I absolutely loved NOLA! We had such a great time there! Love the rum pic - too funny 8)
