THE JAM!!!

Hey, I think its only right to give you guys an idea of what its like to be us right now. Here are a few things you can do to be with us on the road right now.

1)Pour some gasoline and motor oil into a rag and set it in a small box then crawl into the box to get an idea of the smell in the van.
2)Turn up the heat in your apartment/house to about 100 degrees then buy one of those novelty battery operated fans and hold it three feet from your face to get an accurate feel of the temperature and AC in the van.
3)Eat McDonalds, or Taco Bell, or any greasy Southern food two meals a day everyday.
4)Sweat all day everyday and only take showers or change clothing every few days.
5)listen to these songs non stop.

This ones for you Christy.





Please anyone and everyone comment on this post and give us a song or some songs that you love that you think we should listen to on our trip.

Thank you everyone who is reading.

PS post comments on every blog, we'd love to know that people are reading. MIZ U.

The drive from Austin to New Orleans

So in the tradition of the rest of the trip we planned on leaving Austin at noon...well we didn't wake up until after that so by the time we left it was closer to 6pm. We drove through the night, stopping at Denny's for dinner, then kept on driving. We stopped in Houston to take this picture.

Then got back on the road. Here are some pictures we took after the sun began to rise. Coming into New Orleans.
We saw another thunderstorm.

There were signs on the road that said "high fog area" or something to that effect. Its no San Francisco fog, but driving through a swamp at the break of day and seeing this is kind of eerie.









When we arrived in New Orleans we took a nap in a Walmart parking lot for an hour or so then we called Robin. Robin is one of three people that we met in Austin. We met them at Shagri-La a bar in Austin. We were talking about the road trip and we told them we were going to be in New Orleans next. They told us they were from New Orleans and that we should hit them up when we get there so they can show us around. That was a great offer because at that point we didn't know anyone in New Orleans and we weren't sure how much time we were going to spend there because we didn't have anywhere to go or anyone to see.
Anyway, we called Robin around 8am when we woke up from the Walmart nap and she was still awake, she was up all night partying.
We rode a little before we found her.

We went back to her house and took a nap.

Adria

then they took us out to see the french quarter.
This ones for you Corey.



We stopped at Cafe Du Monde to get a Beignet. I guess that's the thing you have to do when you are in New Orleans. It's pretty much tastes just like a Funnel cake.









Oh my god, is that fountain on fire?

It Definitely is...

Bourbon Street


We went back to the apartment and got ready for the evening.




Chris.

Adria.

Robin.

What's that?What did we have for dinner? Oh, Tater Tachos. Its Tater tots with nacho fixins and pulled pork on top of them. Yes it was as delicious as it looks.

We woke up Saturday and we went to a graveyard. We were told that you have to see a graveyard in New Orleans. They were right...


I guess because the whole city is below water level people have some sort of issue with their loved ones dead bodies being under water. Sooooo all of the graves are above ground.










We went back to the apartment, hung out till the evening, then we went out with our new friends to a bar that was having a dance party. Have you ever been to a dance party and it feels like over 100 degrees in the bar then you step outside to get some fresh cool air? Well imagine being in a bar that feels over 100 degrees then you step outside and it feels over 100 degrees. We thought Texas was hot, well it doesn't have any game on New Orleans.
Thank you so much Chris, Robin and Adria for showing us around and giving us a place to crash. We are in debt. Come say hey next time any of you are in New York.

MOAR!!!!
