NOLA

Maddy and Hudson had a great time in New Orleans on our way to Florida a few weeks ago.  We stayed for one night and slept well the kids slept well.  

We were so surprised to see so many people wearing all white with red scarves, but then we quickly learned there was an event going on called NOLA Running of the Bulls.  They were finished when we were out and about so one of the lovely "bulls" stopped for a photo with Maddy.  

After breakfast and walking around the French Quarter, we went to the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas.  We have been to four or five different aquariums and this one ranks near the middle.  Lots of great kids activities, but no dolphins like Corpus.  We heart Corpus.  

Petting stingrays.  Mostly pointing, not really petting.  

Logan didn't get the memo that you need to take the picture of the whole walrus in order for it to look like your face is actually a walrus.  

Hudson was there, like a good boy, in the brand new stroller Daddy went out a bought at 7:00 am that morning because we realized we forgot ours.  Good thing.  I'm glad we didn't have to haul him all over the place....although he is quite cuddly.  

I really want to go back someday and drink chicory and eat beignets at Cafe Du Monde.  But not for now.  We've got other things going on here.  Wouldn't you like to know. 

Baby is crying, better go!
