7 1/2 hours later we arrive on St Charles Ave. Trolly ride into French quarter from John's friend's house in the Garden District.

My pick... Fast food health risks! I am Pearl!!!! Kind of was a buzz kill as we love to eat on vaca!

Dead stop on the interstate outside Lafayette. :( Five hour drive ended being 7!

Allie's choice on music...One Direction, Rihanna, Fun, Mumford and Son, Enrique Ingleses, Nicki Manage, "hello dahling" (fake English accent).

First hour of our spring break road trip. Heading west on I10..to New Orleans. To get the kids interested and engaged, I challenged them to each pick two podcasts to play on our 6 hour ride. First podcast... Allie's pick - interview w Niall Hoorn from One Direction. Second pick was Jack's, Dave Grohl from Foo Fighters interview... Humm seeing a tread here... Wait till they here mine! Also thought I might take pics of silly billboards along the way...we'll see!...
