Title: 10.5s Krewe Du Smoke 2014
Post by: Tenpoint5 on April 22, 2014, 10:47:21 PM
Miss Vicky and myself arrived in NOLA on Thursday evening and met up with Mr. and Mrs. Nepas. We went out for supper at Felix's Oyster Bar and restaurant. Raw oyster plate and Gumbo for me and Nepas had the grilled oysters. I stole one of his when he wasn't looking! They wasn't half bad.

You know where we went next don't you?? Yep

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/20140417_212736_zpsdlnpmlqv.jpg)

We took our Lovely brides to Pat O'Briens and went into the courtyard. I do believe I see the Spirit of the Phoenix in the fire!

Lunch was a Muffuletta

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/20140418_132757_zpsygg4picf.jpg)

Saturday night was the only meal I was unable to finish!! In my defense I did eat 3/4's of a Muffulatta for lunch at the Napolean House!

The Gumbo

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/20140419_200440_zps4wwf0vso.jpg)

The Crawfish Pie and the Jambalaya

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/20140419_201744_zpswolyx6bb.jpg)

Since I was all filled up with food. We met with Mr. and Mrs. Bam1 and Mr. and Mrs. Nepas once again at Pat O's
Momma had a Fuzzy Leprechaun and I had a few more Hurricanes. The printing on the glasses pretty much summed the weekend up for Miss. Vicky and I.

Geeze, Tommy.  You changed your avatar, again.  Seeing you "unmasked" is a frightening experience first thing in the morning.  Put the mask back on!

No I didn't get to meet the turtle. We had to hurry home to get the kids back into a school routine.  I did find out that Elvis is still alive. It cost $72 to see everything at Graceland or $34 just to tour the mansion. I waved to him from the rock wall at the street!

I forgot to add Lunch on Saturday. A Muffuletta!! I ate 3/4's of it and Momma ate 1/4. That may explain why I couldn't finish my supper!!

OMG That Muffaletta looks delicious. 3/4 of one is all I have been to put away in one sitting too.  The leftover 1/4 taste great a few hours and several Abita Ambers later.   ;)
