Monsoons and Meat



We went out last night, we had dinner at a place called Port of Call. Literally there were six things on the menu – a hamburger, a cheeseburger, a mushroom burger, a mushroom cheeseburger, filet mignon, or a NY strip steak. Each one came with a baked potato loaded with a half stick of butter and a bowl of sour cream (I’m not kidding). I had a cheeseburger with a mountain of shredded cheddar cheese. It was pretty amazing. The drink menu however went on for days, but I guess they are famous for a drink called a Monsoon, that comes in a huge plastic cup that you can take with you. I did not partake, because it was still pretty early in the night, and trip for that matter, to be making a fool of myself. After we listened to some awesome jazz bands on Frenchmen Street. I’m really looking forward to some great live music the rest of this trip.

    Very interesting update and much appreciated. It must be very emotional on many levels. I am very proud of you. I haven't yet been able to access the Katrina Timeline but I'm anxious to see it. Quick question about the Port of Call version of the 'mushroom burger'.......(you knew I had to go there)....Love you ...miss you...Dad
