When we arrived in New Orleans our first outing was to City Park to see the Christmas lights. As our luck would have it, a children's program was beginning just as we arrived. To my surprise, when Mrs. Clause asked for volunteers, Ella quickly raised her hand and ran to the stage. Katie bravely, although a bit reluctantly, followed her.

Ella and Katie meeting the Mardi Gras Jester, who as you can tell by the smiles on their faces, was making them giggle, giggle, giggle!
There is a LOT to do at City Park -- there was a very long train, an old-fashioned carousel, a roller coaster, as well as Storyland, a children's playground full of characters the girls know from their story books. The girls were disappointed that Daddy couldn't join them; he was still in DC packing out our stuff. The girls decided they would take him as a surprise when he arrives. So, expect more photos from City Park in future posts!
