I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the Jim Haynes gathering (I posted to your thread about it awhile back). It's not for gourmands - nor anti-social people, lol.
As much as I miss living in New Orleans like nobody's business, I do NOT miss the flight from Paris through Houston!
Thanks again for a great report.

Wonderful TR, nola77382. Your niece will remember this forever! What a super gift to her.
Going to look at your pix next.
ps-The apartment looked great. May I ask, did you have to pre-pay? If so did they take credit cards? Thanks.

YankyGal-you are exactly right about Jim Haynes' dinners! Jim didn't move from his perch by the cooks but everyone we talked to was friendly. There were some older French friends of Jim hitting on the younger girls--very funny! Thanks for the rec.
I've been back in NOLA permanently 3 months and all I really miss about Houston are the direct flights to Europe! Now I have to connect somewhere, usually Houston, then onto my destination. I don't regret coming home, though. You know there's really no place else like New Orleans; good bad and ugly.
TDudette, thanks for your comments; I hope she remembers how nice we were when she has to choose our nursing home, lol!
Re. the apartment, I paid 1/3 by credit card when I reserved the apartment (fax to the apartment manager with the credit card details and the signed contract) and the rest in Euro cash on check-in; they'd also take a Euro cashier's check.
Cheers, nola
