After checking out, we followed our friends Gina and Philip's suggestion of going to Cafe Du Monde to get beignets (French fried donuts). It was SO delicious! They had great coffees too! Thanks Phil and Gina! What a simple, yet brilliant, business. There were so many people there. Then we walked around the area, and got on a couple of trolleys to see the sights. These trolleys were ancient, noisy, and slow, but it felt authentic and the rides were fun and peaceful. Before getting back on the road, we decided to get a roast beef po'boy (with cheese and gravy) to complete the New Orleans experience. Wow, that was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had! Messy, but really awesome! By evening, we got to our destination, Houston, where we stayed with Elena's aunt, Maria, and her husband, Mario.
