::iz totally giddy::
We made it here after a positively weird start to the day. I overslept. *nods*
It was about 4.30 this morning when I finally found my way to bed, then I woke up at 8.30 and decided, nah, way too little sleep; after all, there were 300 miles to be driven in the afternoon. So, I went back to bed, fell asleep - and woke up at 12.45. Uhuh. I don't remember any occasion I slept that late, lol.
After putting the last cloak together with only the to-be-sewn-by-hand stuff left to do on both of them, and then packing, I left at around 4pm. Torrential rain was the order of the afternoon, starting about 10 miles down the road. Got to Nawlins around 9pm. No sign of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sbrande, so blue_paris and I went to a restaurant just across the road from Lush. The food was absolutely divine. I had shrimps, oh what a surprise, with green beans and dirty rice. I don't wanna know what dirty rice contains, but the entire meal was just absolutely wonderful. Just the right amount of spicy, just the right dryness, well, divine. We were pretty much squeeing all the time because it's just so, umh, exciting to be here, to meet other fans, to have a good time.
Tomorrow looks busy. Some have organised a lunch for the volunteers, so I'll be going to that (more shrimps?), followed by the volunteers training, then to the airport to pick uphogwartshoney and charmed310, then the rhythm revue dinner.
No pics yet. :-)
