Manteo, NC to New Orleans, LA, USA: April 2014
Trek arrive at ToadHall, in Manteo, NC to 80 degree weather....phew..it's hot!!!!
HAPPY RAT DAY 2014 TO EVERY RAT IN THE WORLD AND BEYOND FORM ME, THE TRAVELIN' RAT AND EVERYONE OUT THERE WHO HAS MADE ME AND EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTS ME POSSIBLE!!! THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!
Just a little not to Aunty Elizabeth Ann Erosenko..I was supposed to see her this year too, but won't be able to 'cause she has too much going on . maybe next year WOW!! Mr. Donald and Ms. Joni let me check out my new ride...well, OUR ride for our trip down to New Orleans. They still have to fit me out, but i'm excited!!
I want to drive this beauty, But Mr. Don says no one at the helm but him!!
I think I could steer this without too much trouble!!...just need a helmet and the right gear!!
Oh Bummer!! Ms Joni and Mr Don say I have to travel back here with Ms. Joni.
Well, at least I can show my colours!!
What a nice way to end my EXHAUSTING day of shopping for motorcycle outfit! Just WAIT until you'll see it!! I'm the RAT!! But the Kitty Hawk beach is just so peaceful and the ocean smells so wonderful!! nice stop before going home!!
Mr. Donald helped pick out a proper hat with the NOLA flavour. I think Theseus-Cheese is a little jealous that he doesn't have one too!
The Outer Banks SPCA What a really special place!!
This little cutie Guinea Pig has brothers and sisters to be adopted too!!!! THEY ARE SO CUTE AND KISSABLE!!!
These guys are older than the babies, but still really lovable!!!
This kitten wanted me to stay and play!!
I'm sorry little buddy, I can't stay and play....
Who could resist this little guy?!!
It's going to long haul.but I can do it! Next stop South Carolina then on to Alabama in the morning and New Orleans by tomorrow afternoon! Stay tuned in!
Nothing like a quiet setting after after a long bike ride.
Nothing quite like a good kip after a long cold wet day on the motor. The morrow is another day. Made it to Montgomery, Alabama. Will visit friend in the morning and then! AND THEN! AND THEN!!!!! OFF TO NOLA!!!!!!!!!! But for now. Quiet sleeps for all zzzzzzzzzzz .......
Ms. Joni says only way to start her morning, and thank goodness there in a wonderful staff at the Starbucks at the Sheridan right at our corner!! (they all love me too...especially the women!!
I'm looking forward to my next host, but must admit that I'm a little bummed that I'm going to miss out on the grave yard tour this lady is going to be taking Mr Don and Ms. Joni on next week Ah, well, I'm have fun with everything else i'm getting to do!!
Off to today's adventures! I just keep meeting more and more wonderful people to spread our cause with!
The day starts with going through security!!! They have to check me out too!!!
These ladies are Angeles!! Besides being volunteers for the Hospital for Women and Children, most of them rescue and adopted their animals too!!!
HEAVEN!! And I don't just mean the music!!!
So many different types of music!! This is incredible!!
AND THE FOOD!!!!!
If this church looks familiar, you're right!! In almost every movie you've seen that is in New Orleans, this is the church in the background... isn't it beautiful?!!
These ladies made mean margarita!!!
Awww.....love is in the air.
This is the radio station Ms Joni and I were on!! We talked all about rat and animal rescue and adoption and how important it is and how us rats get a bad rap!!!
This is the radio announcer Ms Joni and I talked to! He was really nice. We talked all about rat and animal rescue and adoption and how important it is and how us rats get a bad rap!!!
This cute guy made that yummy Nutella crepe for Ms Joni......his friend has ratties!! We had a great discussion about us rats!!
Yummmm...Ms Joni sure enjoyed her Nutella Crepe!!!
It took a bit of convincing for for this New Orleans Indian to get close to me!! See what a bad rap us rats have!! But I broke her down!!
But just like us rats...some times you can't judge a book by it's cover!!
This guy thought I wanted to steal his ideas!! How silly....I just wanted to be his frogs friend!!
Isn't she pretty?!! She's a photographer who took our picture!! We're going to be in the news paper!!
skdalsjdfsjofs.....a little hard to breath...but the hug and love was worth it!!
I know it's not Mardi Gras, but just to get myself one of those fancy masks!!
On my way to dinner with Ms. Joni and friends...
Barrels of wine!! Just my size!! They must of known I was coming!!!
Isn't this a cool way to light up a fireplace!! This was at the restaurant!!
Apparently, this is the oldest restaurant in New Orleans, it looks like a really cool place...but we didn't go in, we had already had a great meal!!
This was us!! Off on the town hitting Bourbon Street!! Sure is a colourful place!!
Look at all the cool lights and colours!!
The night life here it just wild and it isn't even 9 pm yet!!
oooo oooo ooo what's going on in there?.... I never did find out!! By the time I could see over the crowd, the music had stopped!! bummer!!
Everyone wanted to have their pictures taken with to hear what I'm all about!! Kind of cool to spread the word!!
WoW!! Some of these buildings are just so cool!! I love it!!
Just another bit of cool history...besides, I think I look pretty cool next to the sign!!
I know, I know, i just wanted a little taste!!!
My good friend Clive back at LaBell Maison...It was hard to say good-bye
Oh Clive...you've been such a good friend and so nice to me and my temporary family, Ms Joni and Mr Don, I'll always remember you here....bye-bye....
