4th of July

So, we had a fantastic 4th of July. First we lit fireworks in the park in Gretna (the town where they're legal near us), and htat was a screaming good time as you can well imagine. Afterward Nikolai wanted to see the big fireworks show, so we headed on down to the Vieux Carré for some loud fun. The show was good (though I kind of expected more of the fireworks themselves), but the ambiance was spectacular. Above is a picture of me and Nikolai on the riverwalk watching the fireworks.
