I got tired of being asked if I wanted to buy a ticket or tour package from the Jersey Shores parents(too much makeup and too many pall malls). I actually don't think I ran into or spoke to a straight, white(including cajun), native person from NO. Plenty of freaks to look at though, some of them didn't realize they were freaks. Oh well, lesson learned

PS, I did find oen thing i really liked... Abita Amber, no its not a stripper, its a beer!

That report kinda sucks Spare, and the food wasn't even good? Hell I stopped at a fuel station in NO and got a shrimp po-boy that I was jazzed about. Daytime NO is tame enough for family, there must not be a lot of tourist if they were overselling and panhandling. The girls pimping shooters were always overworking it but then who minds that? It is a bit of a game just people watching.. the smell of urine in the streets I could do without..
