I just got back to Iraq. I hated leaving to come back, but only 2 months left to go!
My Wife and I want to thanks ya'll for a great time down in NOLA. We had an absolute blast there. We really aren't city people, but on the train ride back we were already trying to figure out when we could return (around Christmas sometime - we hope). The Garden District is gorgeous, as well as the French Quarter. The only way to see that Katrina happened was to really go looking for evidence. We HIGHLY recommend everyone go there and visit. There is so much to do, and see. We were never bored, and were not rushed at all. Time seemed to stop there. We WILL be going back!
