January 6th, 2011 (Day 6)

Today was another awesome day in New Orleans.

We took a steamboat river cruise down the Mississippi and got a lot of information on New Orleans and got to see parts of the city from the coast. It was really cool. We ate a delicious lunch of fried chicken (best I've ever had), jambalaya, New Orleans frittata, French bread and butter, salad, and bread pudding for dessert. After the boat ride, we walked around a little bit more and went back to the French market, passed the Beauregard Keyes House, and did a little shopping. Eventually we went to Acme Oyster House for dinner. We each got a cup of gumbo soup (I got chicken and sausage, Lauren got seafood) and split a platter of crab cakes, hush puppies, and fries.

We are super bummed to go home tomorrow. New Orleans was a blast and I definitely want to visit again!

An abandoned building we saw from the Mississippi River during our lunch cruise. I just loved it.
