Last Night in the City of New Orleans


In the morning we took the trolley to the Garden District and Tulane University.   This was the biomedical engineering building. What a nice campus.


In the afternoon we took a long ride on our folding bikes. Here we were at Louie Armstrong Park.


I am holding Lulu's "Hawaiian Itch" glasses at Tropical Isle on Bourbon Street.


At Tulane University - this one tree was full of beads from Mardi Gras.


I am not sure if Lulu knew she was posing in front of those signs.

Today we drive home. It is 390 miles to Tallahassee - took 6 and 1/2 hours to get here. We plan to stop to see Earl and Jean Eidem - my former students - and their 3 new kids. They live in Crestview Florida.

Friday 9 PM - we made it home safely - had a fun with with Earl and Jean and family. We had no rain all week in New Orleans. It was 400 miles home - the Prius got 47 MPG and easily made it home without stopping for gasoline.  We left New Orleans at 11 AM. We made a stop at a shopping outlet in Gulfport MS - and spent a few hours with the Eidems. More picture later.
