Sara, the boys and I spent the early afternoon of Christmas Eve at New Orleans City Park. A beautiful large oasis of calm in the middle of this vibrant city, it’s the location of the New Orleans Botanical Garden, a large Amusement park, amazing sculpture garden, walking paths along the gentle creek AND Cafe Du Monde’s newest location for their famous beignets. What a beautiful way to spend the holiday. And my 1st. beignet….yummy!
