Last night in Destin and then headed NOLA way

Traditionally, we have gone out to dinner one night during our stay in Destin. This year we saved it for the last night and unfortunately, there were two wrecks that happened on little old highway 98. Traffic was backed up truly for miles. Instead of getting into that mess, we headed east in search of something new.

We landed at Elmo's Grill.  We had a good time. It was casual with a guitarist playing.

The whole crew!

Friday morning we headed west towards New Orleans.
Conleigh loves the art and old architecture of this city.

the photo bomb was very prominent on this trip.

bomb agin.


 Campbell had her fortune told by this guy. He told her to be patient and her friends in the Armed Forces will be returning soon. Hahahaha.


 For dinner, we ate at Mulate's. Delicious cajun fare. Peter and I both chose crawfish etouffee.
They have a real cajun band and dancing. All the kids loved it.

I spy...

Campbell and Alex spent a long time setting up this fort in the hotel room. They even slept in it. At about 5am, Campbell tapped me and said, I'm ready to get in a bed now. :)
