Getting to the french quarter was a comedy of errors. Mel decided to film it and Vinnie put it out on Google video unedited. There is a link to it-Road Warriors, the silly tour- under 2007 Feel Good Tour Video in the column to the right. Vinnie, Al and Rich are all punsters.
We finally parked and walked through Saturday afternoon Mardi Gras. There were bands playing in the mostly empty bars, bands playing in the street, lots of beads, costumes and people drinking.
Bill wanted us to experience New Orleans food. We got into the car and (no surprise) got lost. We found ourselves at Peter Springs and he was in. He suggested an upscale bar-b-que a few blocks away with varied menu and reasonable prices. Mel remembered Gordon asked for a mocha coffee and surprised everyone by ordering a mixed hot chocolate and coffee to go. Who says they won't have mocha coffee in a bar-b-que bar?
