N'awlins!!

Brian and I went to New Orleans to visit our very good friends the Macneills. It was a great way to celebrate my 23rd birthday! Our first night we went to Jacquemos...which had the most amazing food ever. Following dinner, we went to a local bar and heard a brass band.


Thursday we went to the French Quarter and ate at Port of Call, which had deadly drinks called Monsoon's....but they were very delicious! After dinner we walked around the FQ and found Amac's favorite rock cover band...they were awesome.



Our last night, we went to the House Of Blues to watch Trombone Shorty perform (Which was the most amazing concert). Wynton Marsalis came out towards the end of the concert to perform with him. It was an incredible moment in Jazz History.


Overall, we had a fantastic trip (no illnesses or bad weather). We were bummed when we had to leave our good friends. New Orleans is a pretty incredible place. If you haven't been yet, I would HIGHLY recommend it!!! The vibe is pretty spectacular.
