Hello, it`s Betty again and it`s time to fill you in on the days events. Well I`ll start with last night which after the lift experience we had our usual wine, olives and crisps. Got out down the stairs(not using that lift again!) and across to Bourbon St. Oh my god if you think of Ibiza and times it by 10! Everyone is drinking on the balcony's and you have to dodge what they are throwing down! The girls are out working and it`s packed. We were looking for a bar called Fritzels and we eventually found it. There was a Jazz Band playing and they were brilliant so we got 2 seats at the bar and settled in. We want to go back tonight after we`ve eaten and bri wants to take a video,fingers crossed. Off home to look at our emails,, thanks again it`s great to get news and gossip. Up at 6.30 this morning and got the trolley bus to the garden district. Now that was beautiful. The houses with their pretty balcony's and gardens are just typical of what you`d expect.
It`s great here you get everyones life story whether you want it or not! The trolley bus is the best, oh today a chap got on and said hello to everyone on the entire bus and then looked at us and asked where we were from . When we said England he produced a name and phone number from his wallet and asked if we knew this lady, well we did think for a minute and said sorry but no. He then asked if we would say hello to the queen! We got off at the park and the weather was getting very hot. There was a large lake and the joggers were out ,oh and a lady on her bike towing her two children in a carriage on the back. Thought that was a great idea. Had lunch and back on the bus to do the tour of the cemeteries. Sorry Bri is rushing me now so must be quick.
Back on bus to the riverside and shops. I love this place lots of jazz and people sitting outside, great place to people watch. Speak soon Betty x x
