October 24, 2018. New Orleans, Louisiana. A Successful Day.

The second excursion was easier than the first. Ken and I decided that we have gotten used to the sidewalks in The French Quarter, which are terrible. First, for breakfast, we ate the last of Ken's lunch from yesterday. After I tried out the shower, we went out for coffee and a sweet. The hotel staff directed us to this wonderful spot just two blocks away, so we headed out. Walking was a nightmare for both of us. The sidewalks are not level and are all broken up. Ken quickly took to the street. But we made it. And the almond croissants were delicious as was the coffee so it was worth the difficult walk. By 12:30 we were home and Ken had a shower. I washed his hair. He kept his bandage on while he showered so next up was removing the wet bandage and re do the bandage. The only problem was that I could not get off the tape. Again, we needed a real nurse. Eventually, everything was done but not properly. When we got home late afternoon we discovered he was still bleeding which unfortunately left blood on the bed cover. Next up was an early super. Once again, the hotel staff directed us to Coop's a place two blocks away. we wanted to get out and home before dark. This time we did better. And the food was tasty . Typical New Orleans food. Ken ate blackened red fish and I ate a bowl of seafood gumbo. Now we will once again watch the World Series. Our day was a success. We are happy.
