inside Rhodes

This spring break, I went to New Orleans to help rebuild. At first, I just expect this spring break to be a working break ( being a worker to rebuild houses in New Orleans), however, this Spring Break turned out to be so much fun with a group of Rhodes friends and is the best break in Rhodes so far!

My first impression about New Orleans is the rain, the first two day, it is raining all the time in New Orleans. There’s one thing makes me so exciting about New Orleans is the St.Patrick’s day parade. To be honest, I have never watched a parade other than milatary parade in China before. The St. Patrick’s day parade is very Irish, there are Irish dance, Irish kiss and Irish flower. my friends joked with me when I was wearing an Irish hat, they said I was a Irish-American-Chinese now. The parade was so exciting, people threw beads, cups, vegetables and toys all over you!

another impressive thing is the food, oh, my god! I can’t forget all the fancy food I ate in New orleans! I would say, I almost fell in love with American food while in New Orleans! the best meal is the crawfish dinner. the familiy cooked a lot of crawfish and pull them on the table. I never saw so many alive crawfish in my life, not mention those delicious already cooked crawfish which are ready for you to eat!

the last exciting thing that I must mention is Bourbon Street, which makes New Orleans more like a party city. It’s so exciting walking on the Bourbon street, hearing people shouting for Beads, seeing people going crazy in different pubs and enjoying the party atomosphere. I and some friends even went to dance in the French corner, a pub called “crazy party corner” on Bourbon street.

apparently, I had a good time in New Orleans for my spring break!
