G'day,
Easy drive today from New Iberia, LA to New Orleans, LA; no technical problems, however, we did have an accident. Just before we got
off I-10 to go to the French Quarter RV Park (FQRVP) a guy came past us with a lawnmower handle sticking out of his rear passenger
window and smacked the driver side Ramco mirror. It broke the lower convex portion. He kept driving and I had to pull up next to him
to tell him he had hit my mirror. I got his details and he said he would pay to repair the mirror. I called JimK and he's getting a
mirror sent to ChuckB's place.
This is the second time we've stayed at the FQRVP and it is a REALLY nice place to stay. It's a 10-15 minute walk up to Bourbon
Street. Last time we were here we sampled the local fare at a restaurant called Remolade so we went back. We were EXTREMELY
disappointed this time. For drinks I ordered a Bloody Mary and Helen a glass of Pinot Grigio. I ordered File Gumbo and Jambalaya:
Helen ordered Seafood Gumbo, crawfish pie, and seafood jambalaya. I couldn't taste the Vodka in the BM and Helen noted the PG was
very average. The "bowl" of soup turned out to be less than a cup in volume. And we reckon they forgot the chicken and sausage in
the Jambalaya. As I ate I found only a couple tiny pieces of chicken and sausage and about 6 what I call popcorn shrimp. Helen did
find some crawfish in her pie though. There was LOTS of rice. We won't be going back as the meal set us back $55.00 with a tip.
We've been here a number of times so we've seen most of the sights, however, this is our first trip post Katrina and it will be
interesting to see what it looks like since that disaster.
Laissez les bons temps rouler,
Rob M.
