Tim and I just got back from a wonderful weekend in New Orleans. We wanted to get away, just the two of us, one last time before our baby boy arrives. Saturday morning we woke up and headed down to Cafe Du Monde to enjoy some coffee and beignets...so yummy! After that, we took our time walking around the french quarter looking at shops and enjoying the jazz music in the background. We even got to see a little street show by some talented local guys. For lunch, we went to a tiny hole-in-the-wall restaurant and filled up on poboys and cooled down a bit. We walked around a bunch more and then headed back to the hotel for dinner. We shared chargrilled oysters at Drago's Seafood and had a relaxing and romantic evening together.
On Sunday we went to our favorite New Orleans brunch spot - Dante's Kitchen. It was as delicious as we remembered and we always love the atmosphere. We headed to the WWII museaum after that to pay a little homage for Memorial Day Weekend. It was very interesting and we even got to see a really cool 4D show.
We headed back to the quarter and sat on a patio and enjoyed some jazz music with a beer (for Tim) and a virgin pina colada for me :). For dinner we went to Port of Call to try out there delicious burgers--and boy were they worth it! Their wine marinated mushrooms were oh so good. To enjoy our last night on the town, we headed over to Frenchman Street and listened to more live jazz music and really enjoyed ourselves.
Needless to say we had an awesome weekend and our baby boy is now 6 months along!
