what can i say, staying at john's place actually made me want to move to new orleans! :-)

the apartment was completely private, clean, cozy and oh so comfortable. john was gracious, helpful and accommodating. and always just a phone call away! it was like staying downstairs from an old friend.

although it was quite nice to start everyday with a lovely little walk and scenic streetcar ride downtown to the convention i was attending, i actually had a better time hanging out in his neighborhood than i did in the french quarter!

when i go back to nola, i'm definitely staying with john again!

and i'm having breakfast @ refuel and dinner @ boucherie, which are just up the street a bit (that's a tip for all you foodies :-))
