Road trippin'

On Wednesday morning, I left for Florida. I was following my Grandma and Grandpa since they are also going to Florida for 2 months at a house they rent out in Kissimmee. It just happened to work out that their first day there is the 22nd and my first day is the 23rd. It worked out perfectly :) So I followed them through Ohio, then Kentucky, and into Alabama, where we spent the night. We stayed in Athens, and grabbed some dinner at a BBQ joint named Lawlers. It was really good!

Then we left bright and early and headed for Biloxi, Mississippi. We stayed at the Beau Rivage on Thursday and gambled. What a beautiful hotel! There were so many cool shops, and fresh flowers everywhere. It was just like a luxury Vegas hotel. My Great-great Aunt Sarah Jane and Uncle Bill met up with us at the Beau Rivage because they always do with my Grandma and Grandpa. They always get free hotel rooms and they even managed to get me one as well! I took my first bubble bath in 2 years and it was fabulous!

On Friday, we headed out to New Orleans for the day. We went on a bus tour to see the 9th ward, where Hurricane Katrina hit the hardest, the Garden district, the cemeteries, and the French Quarter. I learned so much about the history, and got to see a lot of cool things. I also got to see a bunch of celebrity houses, such as Brad Pitt, Sandra Bullock, John Goodman, Ann Rice, and the house that The Curious Case of Benjamin Button was filmed in. After the tour, we went to Cafe Du Monde and had some piping hot beignets and hot chocolate. It was so delicious!!!

Today we headed over to the Hard Rock Hotel to try our luck there. I managed to win $84 on my last spin of the night! We also saw an Abba show that was surprisingly entertaining!

Well, I better head to bed now because in the morning we're heading to Orlando!!!
