Thur night

Just back from the Tortoise Club which thankfully is just over the road from our hotel. It is cold here so my one cardigan & one pair of trainers are going to get a lot of wear. Food tonight was very acceptable but very expensive. Our waiter was, however, very attentive & personable. The portions were big but not huge—a noticeable difference from NY. I’m worried that by the time we get to New Orleans we will be eating half a cow each!!  We are both pleasantly surprised by the wine—previous experiences of American wine don’t make happy memories. 

Tomorrow is another day & we are looking forward to meeting up with never before seen members of Doug’s family, Crispin & Cécile.
