Road Trip to New Orleans

Krystall's first college football game (Krystall and I went with a friend and his 9 year old son)








  • BYU 54 Tulane 3

  • SuperDome - New Orleans









  • 21 Hours round trip

  • 1000 miles

  • saw 8 accidents requiring tow trucks. 2 semi's rolled over. One was a 5 car...

  • 4-5" of rain

  • Lunch in French Quarter (not exactly a kid friendly place)



  • Worst traffic pattern I have ever seen. We could see the Dome across the train tracks, but no way to get there. One wrong turn put us on a carpool lane with no offramp until across the river. Think making a turn onto the bay bridge from SF when trying to get to ATT park. Horrible signs and directions. getting out was not much better. Roads that dead end into chainlink fences...

On the way home we drove by LSU Tiger Stadium. Pouring rain, but the stands were full.



More on the rest of the clan later... we need to figure what pictures of the 5000 or so roaming on the hard drives.
