Watching TV
7 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ 🌙 75 °F
We’re too tired to go out exploring anymore tonight so we’re just going to stay in our room, relax, and watch some television. We’re not really sure what’s on though. The channels and show schedule are a bit different from what we’re used to back home. We’re managing though.En savoir plus

Good Night, New Orleans!
7 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ 🌙 73 °F
One last look at New Orleans before we go to sleep. The view out of the window in our hotel room is very nice. I thought it look good this afternoon but it’s even better at night. Good night!

Good Morning!
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ 🌙 70 °F
The city of New Orleans looks the same as it did yesterday but things in our room aren’t the same at all. After waking up, we found out that our hotel room had no electricity or running water. We called the front desk and was told that this problem was affecting the entire hotel!En savoir plus

Finding a New Hotel
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ 🌙 70 °F
We obviously can’t stay in a hotel room with no electricity or water so Kathy began working on finding us another place to stay. We’re very lucky that she works in the travel industry. She’s got a lot more resources to find a room than the average person.En savoir plus

Packing Up
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 72 °F
Kathy found us a room quicker than I expected. There was a football game in the city last night causing nearly all the hotels to be fully booked. I never knew the New Orleans Saints were so popular! Well, I’m just happy that we have another place to go. Let’s start packing!En savoir plus

A Brief Breakfast

Kathy is having a banana before we get ready to leave the room. I didn’t consider it before but we’re going to have to walk downstairs to the lobby with our luggage.

Going Down
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F
And so begins the long journey of walking down ten flights of stairs with all of our luggage. I’m so happy that we always travel light or this could have been much worse.

Repair Crews
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F
When we checked out of our room. We were told that we weren’t going to be charged anything because of there being no electricity or water. There’s lots of repair trucks outside the building. At least Hotel Indigo seems to be taking this problem seriously.En savoir plus

Bye, Hotel Indigo
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F
This was a nice hotel, and I’m sorry that we’re leaving, but electricity and water are both necessities that we need. Hopefully we’ll stay here again sometime and things will work out better. If nothing else, this hotel has given us a story that we can tell for the rest of our lives.En savoir plus

The Ruby Slipper
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F
Walking down all those flights of stairs must have worked up an appetite because we were both so hungry. We decided to have breakfast at the Ruby Slipper before going to our new hotel.

Tired but Hungry
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F
It felt strange going into a restaurant with all of our luggage but we were too tired and hungry to even care. All we wanted right now was to eat.

Crowded Already
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 75 °F
Here’s a panoramic view of the whole restaurant. I’m surprised it’s this busy so early in the morning. I wonder how many of the people here are from Hotel Indigo and checked out early, like we did.

Despite it seeming busy, we were served our food fairly quickly. Everything looks delicious and we’re ready to dig in. We’re so hungry!

Biscuits and Gravy
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 77 °F
I got the biscuits and gravy, a southern staple that’s impossible to find in New York City. As much as I enjoy this dish, it’s, unfortunately, been categorized as a vacation meal.

Problems
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 79 °F
After finishing breakfast, we noticed that the problems at Hotel Indigo still weren’t resolved. Now, they have a car blocking a street filled with service vehicles. I wonder how this all started.

On Our Way
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 79 °F
Well, Hotel Indigo isn’t our problem anymore because we’re on our way to our new hotel, the Hampton Inn and Suites. It’s just around the corner from Hotel Indigo so, thankfully, we didn’t have too far to go.En savoir plus

Welcome!
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 79 °F
I was kind of surprised to find the hotel lobby was a bit crowded. I wonder how many of these people have come here from Hotel Indigo, like we did. The staff at the front desk was very efficient and we soon had a pair of keys to our new hotel room.En savoir plus

Welcome, Kathy!
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F
I’m seeing more and more hotels doing this now. They leave on the television and it has a greeting with the guests name on it. I think it’s a nice idea and makes the room seem more personal and inviting.En savoir plus

That’s a View?
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F
The view we had at Hotel Indigo was much nicer than what we have now at the Hampton Inn and Suites. Well, it’s only going to be here for one day so I guess that we’ll just have to deal with it.

Two Beds?!
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F
Even worse than our nonexistent view was the fact that this room was furnished with two double beds rather than just one king sized, or even queen, bed. I can’t even remember the last time Kathy and I slept in separate beds but, as I said before, it’s just for this one night. We had to change our hotel so suddenly that I guess we’re lucky to have found anything at all!En savoir plus

Uncle Scrooge?
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 82 °F
As we left our new hotel, I noticed this design on the sidewalk of the building next door. Are we staying right beside Scrooge McDuck’s money bin? The bin holds 3 cubic acres of cash and this building doesn’t look quite that big. Maybe this is Uncle Scrooge’s annex bin or something like that.En savoir plus

Harrah’s
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 82 °F
The first place we came to as we walked down Canal Street was Harrah’s Casino. We thought it would be a great place to cool down and enjoy the air conditioning. It’s still early in the day but it’s already heating up. It’s always so hot in New Orleans!En savoir plus

Red or Black?
8 novembre 2022, États Unis ⋅ ☀️ 82 °F
Roulette is probably one of the easiest casino games to understand and play. Despite that, I’ve never tried playing it. I’ve thought about it a few times but the minimum bets are usually kind of high.
