Just a quick update today as I thought I might not be able to add any more for a few days. I am still in New Orleans, but will be leaving here at 8am tomorrow morning heading for San Antonio and then Mexico. I had a monster session in New Orleans last night, mostly in a bar called the Cat's Meow! There was a big Karakoe, so I had to make a show of myself and get up and sing! The cat was meowing and dogs howling my the end of my version of day dream believer. It is Ricard's birthday today(one on the Sweedish brother's - why were'nt they Sweedish girls - damm), so we will be heaidng out tonight for a boozy night again. He is 20, so hopefully we'll find some where he can be served with out being asked for ID. There are a few youngsters on the trip (I mean under 20's), but they are all a good laugh. This morning we went on a swamp tour and saw a few aligators and stuff. I then ate one. I had an aligator hot dog type thing. It was ok, nothing special. Francis Morgan: I picked you up a thimble from Louisana (not sure if you have one or not). If you don't you probably still won't as it will be pure luck if it makes it all around the world with me. Great to see your all adding messages, but joanna get them lessons done and don't be blaming me for your home work being late!!! Never thought I'd say this but I'm missing you all at Access. Hope the place is still operating without me! These PC's in this internet cafe could do with a clean down, but it won't be me doing it!!! Finally - Colin - I will be in NZ from the 9th June until some time in July. I fly in and out of Auckland and will try to travel around both Islands (North and South). Any way Adios Amigos, Big love across the sea to y'all - Mick
