Countdown to Adventure

My adventures officially start when I fly out of New Orleans next Saturday morning - May 22!

Official countdown:

I actually fly out at 12:18pm, so add about 12hrs to the countdown time if you want to be super precise. :)

I can't wait!

Before we leave though, we have a prep week that started this past Thursday and will last until this coming Tuesday.
Yesterday, to learn about the links between Louisiana and Ubaye Valley, we went to Arnaudville, Louisiana - a little city on Bayou Teche essentially founded by the Arnaud brothers who lived in the Ubaye Valley region. (There are also ties from Mexico to Ubaye Valley because of these men.)

Angela, Kim, Sarah, and Chris.

Carla (one of our fearless leaders), Caleb, Kaitlyn, and Julie.

Jessica with M. Dubernet (our other leader) and Mavis, our tour guide in Arnaudville, in the background.

Really awesome ham and fig panini from this cafe/restaurant/performance venue called Nu Nu's. It's adjacent to an art gallery with art by a very talented local artist.
