| Preservation Hall before the show |
Remember when I told ya'll about one of the biggest benefits of living here in Houston is that there are lots of places to visit within a short drive. Well, I discovered New Orleans... and boy, did I ever discover it. It was my first visit and I walked through Bourbon Street for drinks and oysters, Frenchman's Street for some great jazz, Magazine Street for the shops and dining...
Dining in New Orleans is an event onto itself. I went there with oysters and gumbo on my mind and it did not disappoint. I could go on and on describing the eats.
More importantly (to me) is the fact that NOLA is a music city. Much like Nashville (which attracts anyone who wants to be a country/western star), NOLA attracts blues and jazz musicians. I have to admit that it was a thrill to hear the music coming from everywhere.
Gonna go back...
