We have arrived!

After a long day of travel we arrived in New Orleans, with our host Sidney ready to pick us up from MSY Airport. We went straight to our new home for the week, and it is quite a pad. We are in a cute area near Magazine Street, in a 2 story condo all to ourselves! There is a large downstairs with a family room, kitchen, and a large bedroom with bunk beds. Then, you go upstairs to a loft that sleeps a few more, and the best part...a good size deck outfitted with a table and chairs for hangin out. Sidney had a late dinner of chicken and salad waiting for us, and we ravaged the food like the weary travelers we were. The condo is very cozy and we all settled in immediately with a game of scattegories before bed. The group has quickly bonded and it feels as if we are old friends, possibly the Chumash Challenge team building we did in May paid off. We are all VERY excited to explore and start our work projects, the first being Green Light New Orleans, with a BBQ dinner planned for the evening. Already shaping up to be a great trip!
