In the last two hours I have…
- gotten off the Amtrack in New Orleans
- gotten 30 kids plus three chaperones onto a streetcar
- taken nine boys to find dinner…gotten lost…walked in giant circle and
- eaten at Popeye’s. Yep, we came all the way to New Orleans to eat Popeye’s for dinner.
- checked out the gym to satisfy my illusion that I might work out in the morning
- almost forgotten to post
- put my jammies on
Now it’s time to go check on the 18 girls we have with us to make sure they’re in their rooms and not sneaking around New Orleans (lord, help us and give them enough sense not to do that).
I had half a “before that” post written on the train, but I just don’t have the brain power to finish. I almost broke my posting streak and that would have broken my heart.
Goodnight from NOLA!
I’m trying to write for 31 days straight with the Slice of Life challenge from Two Writing Teachers. Wish me luck!
Wow, that’s an amazing story!! I cannot imagine taking our 8th graders ANYWHERE, let alone in New Orleans. Thank you for bringing us along for what I’m sure will be quite an adventure. 🙂

I did the Amtrak thing with 8th graders once–so tiring and so much fun. Popeye’s–how funny. Enjoy your time. Great job keeping up with the Slices.

Way to get it done despite the busy end to your busy day! I loved the part about eating at Popeyes. Enjoy your trip!
