New Orleans






Where do you start!!! The restaurant tour, the night clubs, the food, the Dinner at Brennan's, the presidential suite (with pool table), Brunch at Muriel's, the street car rides, the ferry rides, and, of course, the people who joined us for the celebration. New Orleans is still the perfect place to throw a party. Yes, the clubs and restaurants are not 24/7 like they were years ago, but there is always the casino. For someone who needs breakfast 24 hours a day there is always Daisy Duke's. For someone who insists on gumbo at 9AM there is the Coffee Pot.
The anniversary dinner at Brennan's was impeccable. The restaurant staff did a wonderful job and the food was superb. I still think that my version of the bananas flambe is better but there didn't seem to be any left overs at Brennan's.
It was nice to see that Pat O'Briens still puts on the piano show even though they now close at 3AM.
The above are some pictures from the first day and the restaurant tour. I will add other pictures as they arrive from the various people who took pictures during the weekend.
