One more for the road

Not too much to report on our last day in New Orleans.  Yesterday we took it pretty easy - went into the French Quarter in the morning, hung out, played chess, and walked around until around 4:30.  We took the Street car back home and then grabbed dinner (Pizza) at Rocky's on magazine st. where we got one of our best compliments of the trip from the bartender:  He was asking where all we had been while in New Orleans and when we told him (Bullet's, Parasol's, BJ's, Candlelight Lounge, Half Moon...) he said that we were better locals than he was.

Today we met Caroline for lunch at the Cake Cafe (pictured) where she works.  We were joined at the table by Maitre d' the semi-stray black cat who has taken up residence in/near the bakery.  After lunch we took care of some logistics for the end of the travel portion of our trip - Hotel, car return, shipping of excess gear, and arranging for Mom and Dad to swing down to Savannah and spend the evening with us before we head to Edisto early Sunday morning.

Tonight we'll be catching one more show before we get on the road to Savannah - right before.  We're going to the circle bar to watch Gal Holiday (click here to see a vid of her performing at the same place we'll see her tonight) at 11:00 pm and plan to be on the road by 12:30 or 1:00 AM.
