Montreal

I went to Montreal over Memorial Day weekend. my friend and I had a marvelous time. We stayed at the Auberge de la Fontaine, and we loved it. We loved waking to the smell of freshly baked croissants in the morning. The inn is located on the third largest park in Montreal and we took a nice leisurely walk on Saturday morning after breakfast. The temperature was about 73 degrees during the day and very little humidity. After a bit of shopping, I have to admit that I am really lame because I went back to the inn, opened the windows and napped in the cool breeze. When I woke up, we got dressed and went to dinner at Cafe Cherrier. Will have to eat my way through Montral again.

Memorial Day Weekend

Summer is finally upon us and I am going for a girl's weekend with a friend to Montreal. Her significant other is a vegetarian, so I see a steak in my future....

For both of the readers of this blog: If you are sticking around NOLA and are wondering what to do this weekend, I have a few suggestions. Bayou Bugaloo and Greek Festival. Or you can buy Darius Rucker's new album.

Darius Rucker of Hootie and the Blowfish has a new country album out. Yes, that is right, country. I heard the first single off of it yesterday and really liked it. It's called "Don't think I don't" Check it out.
