New Orleans truly has a lot of festival. Starting with Mardi Gras in February, follow by French Quarter festival, Jazz festival, Greek Festival and two weeks ago a small time festival called Tomato Festival.

All the festival consist of the same components, food, drink (beer) and dancing. This small tomato festival is no exception.





































Summer Camp in New Orleans

Every Friday afternoon, all the parents are invited to attend a weekly recap/performance at the summer camp that Meredith is attending. We went to the last two performances. Meredith is in the smaller age group, she hasn't had a chance to perform yet. All the kids in her age group sit in front of the stage and sing a long as the older kids lead the songs and perform short skits.
