New Orleans













There is not much that has not been said about this amazing city. Marina and spent most of yesterday watching the US Women lose a heartbreaking championship match against Japan yesterday. We watched it in a small pub just off Bourbon Street. While there we met two young couples from Missouri who were also doing a road trip. They invited us to Patrick Obrien's for a Hurricane. The rain came down in buckets and the humidity felt a lot like Guatemala.

Amarillo Texas










One of the most friendly and truly laid back places we visited was Amarillo Texas. We stayed in a small adobe and rock house nestled in the Palo Duro Canyon. We explored the small town of Canyon...I even got a hairt cut and shave, and then took in a western show.
