Last day =(

We went out with a bang at least. Our last day was sad especially since our new friends couldn't work with us. Some people from their team were "sick" so they had to work at different houses. We finished painting all the rooms in the house and we were even able to get 2 coats on most of it. Painting ceilings isn't ideal and if any of you are forced to do it I suggest wearing a hat. I still have paint stuck in my hair. It is near impossible to get out. Glasses might also be another safety feature to have. I had a couple close calls and at one point paint actually landed on my eye. Thankfully I closed it before any paint got in it. Katie and Sam were able to come eat lunch with us and I brought The Game of Things that day so we occupied ourselves with that until Ben came back and put us to work. It was a good day.We ended the work day early so we could go to mass at the cathedral.We invited Katie and Sam to join and they were going to call us when they were cleaned up.

Our group ended up splitting up after the cathedral. Most of the group wanted to go shopping while others of us (Jeff, Drew, and myself) weren't interested. Instead we looked for a Cajun place to eat and instead found a cute and relatively new place called the Royal Deli. It was delicious. I hope to return there next time we visit. I had my first legit poboy. Amazing. The restaurant didn't have any matching silverware, tables, or even chairs. This made us love it even more. It was unique and had some awesome art pieces.

We walked our way back to the hotel and Kirstie proceeded to teach me how to walk like a girl. We worked on this and made the boys talk about guy things. It was entertaining. We also stopped by Cafe Du Monde on the way home to pick up Beignets. Katie and Sam were already hanging out in our hotel pool with another one of their roommates. We hung out with them until they left for the night. Then we packed up our stuff and hung out with the guys until we were ready to go to sleep.

The car ride home was uneventful. It mainly involved playing with Roxy. It was a much better trip than last year. I'm glad I was able to go. I enjoyed everyone there and loved the girls we met.
