April 2019 Jazz Fest with the Patels'

April 2019

Our first morning in New Orleans it POURED for hours!! But luckily it calmed down as we started our walking tour of the Garden District.

Lots of beautiful homes, cemeteries and history here.

Elena stayed with my parents in Michigan. Looks like she's is having a great time too!

Happy Birthday Raj. Dinner at Commander's Palace.

Mardi Gras Indians at Jazz Fest.

Us, Sonia and Raj.

A parade right outside our hotel balcony.

So happy to be in New Orleans.

 My favorite part of Jazz Fest, second line parades!

Here I am cry-laughing. This was the brunch of all brunches. Our waiter at Brennans was so.much.fun. Maybe it was the cocktails. Maybe it was the money shot dessert. Maybe it was the great company. It was fabulous! Thank you Raj and Sonia.

 

Happy Jazz Fest! And THANK YOU Mom and Dad.
