We flew for the first time as a family to New Orleans, home of Brian, Chantal, and future baby cousin! Little Miss Sophia acted like a well-versed traveler, as her first flying experience was a breeze. Sage and I will be adding this to the ever growing list of things we've experienced as new parents.
Anyway, once settled in NOLA we had a good time. The weather was beautiful and we spent much of our time outside, taking several long walks around town looking at the beautiful old homes, to Audubon Park, and around the French Quarter. Our plan to visit the zoo was changed by the only day of iffy weather. We were really excited to take Sophia to the zoo since she was wild over B & C's kitties – hysterically laughing, squealing, and lunging after them. We ending up going to the aquarium instead, but Sophia was much more interested in people watching than the aquatic life. We also celebrated Sage's 34th b-day by hanging out on Magazine Street (a well know main drag) and people watching. Later that evening B & C took us to a nice local restaurant, Matt and Naddie's, to continue the celebration. All the partying caught up with Sophia – she fell asleep halfway through dinner – this was the last hooray before we flew home. Thanks B & C for being such great hosts!
Mom I'm fine, stop worrying!
Fish, what fish? What is going on over there?
sounds like a fine trip and a rewarding visit for all! glad to have you back home! :)
