Christmas in New Orleans

In City Park, Santa rides a pirogue pulled by alligators!

A good time was had by all (really!).  The family got together in New Orleans for Christmas & we all made it through the week without killing each other.  Actually, we all enjoyed each other's company, & tried our best to eat ourselves silly.  Someone received a bath scales from Santa, but I don't think we'll like the numbers it will tell us.

We went for a walk to City Park, where the "Christmas in the Oaks" was full of lights.  But, being New Orleans, there were unique light arrangements.

The best thing about Christmas being over, is that now we can eat King Cakes, all the way to Mardi Gras on Feb 9!

Yes, Virginia, there really is a Santa Claus!

On Dec 29, the weather was warm enough to
go for a cruise on Lake Pontchartrain with
