Rare Saint Greg Posted August 24, 2019 Author #196 Share Posted August 24, 2019 I don’t think I mentioned it last night but I was successful at Nordstrom Rack. I got this charger for $15. It’s pretty close to mine. Mine has the built in cable is the only thing...which I prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 24, 2019 Author #197 Share Posted August 24, 2019 I’m always fascinated with historic buildings. I want to know what a building used to be. I think I may have casually mentioned on one of my reviews last year that this area is where the 1984 worlds fair was and the port is actually where they had the space shuttle. They say they fair was a failure because it didn’t bring the number of people they wanted but I see it as a huge win for New Orleans that is still paying dividends today. It built the convention center, riverwalk mall, and revitalized this area that was old warehouses and is now full of hotels and restaurants. I wish they still had the tram. I’d love to take it to the port. Or the cable car that took you across the river. Imagine being in the holiday inn west bank and taking a cable car over to the port. If you’re ever in Miami and go to the zoo, you can ride the tram that was here in 1984. Here’s a good article on it from a few months ago. https://www.nola.com/entertainment_life/article_492c92ce-7ac8-5430-8c4e-43e0e3ccf567.html 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 24, 2019 Author #198 Share Posted August 24, 2019 I checked out of the hotel and stopped by the car to drop off my dirty clothes and pick up some clean ones for tomorrow. Think I’m going to find something to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted August 24, 2019 Author #199 Share Posted August 24, 2019 This is what’s going on out here. port orleans. I believe that’s the brewery owned by former saints RT and current play by play announcer Zach Strief. Drew Brees had his b-day party at that place after the saints playoff win. There’s a really good article by a couple of guys that crashed the party. It was really cool how they were accepted as if they belonged there.
