8-20-07 After Trip

Well we had a great trip we left Thursday about 11:00 and got to a place called LaPlace New Orlean's. This is where the hospital was that Kent was going to work at on Friday. I seen so much water I did not want to see anymore for a long time. No wonder there was so much water everywhere when the storm went through almost 3 year's ago. We got up at 7:00 and ate breakfast and went into work at 8:00 and left before 11:00 this was a small hospital one level only. We went from their to New Orlean's and stayed in the French Quarter and went looking around. The street's are all one way and not very wide at all people live everywhere. There is alot of street people both men and women. All the shop's were neat in there on way. We ate at Bubba Gump Shrimp place one day and it was good. It had a lot from the show. That night the movie Forest Grump was on TV. I thought that was kinda funny that is was on while we were their. The next day we did some more walking and look at some malls that were on the main street and we seen the Oharrh which was a casion. We seen a couple of those in New Orlean's but not many. Then we went on River Boat ride and that was fun. The captain was telling about different thing's as we went down the river. There was still thing's that was not fixed up form the storm yet. After the River Boat ride we went to The Riverwalk Mall that was neat it was right by the water and a big bridge. But there was Birdge's everywhere you looked becaused that was the only way you could get from New Orlean's to Lousiniana. Also I learned that they are not that far above sea leave so they have to bury people above ground. Then Sunday on the way home we went throught St Bearned Parrish and the 9th Ward they were hit the hardest from the storm and thing's were going up with weed's people still living in trailer's. I know after seeing all of this it make's me happy that I live where I live. Oh there was one little thing we had to do for Joseph we had to bring him a Tshirt from the fire station in New Orleans we had to go by the station 4 time's before we got a shirt. They also keep there street's very clean to. They have horse and buggy ride's so I guess that why they have to clean the street's everyday. Well enough said hubby will be home soon and I don't need to chatter any more.
