It’s a Friday night and cocktails come to mind!  Port of Call specializes in a particular drink called the “Monsoon.”  This delicious concoction will cause a 200 lb man on an empty stomach to begin to see New Orleans as it really is:  fantastic!

Part of the drink list.  I'm ready to walk the plank alright...

Good god…and yes, I got a To-Go Cup.  Walking around with one of these is a badge of honor among all the ‘hand grenades’ and stupid ‘yard’ beers that Nebraskan college student/tourists always seem to be carrying around.

Swept away by the Monsooooooon!

You’ll also notice the Turtle – the solid red, Tequila based drink that you see in the background.  Folks, take note – that’s a SMALL that you see.

Well, that’s about it from Port O’ Call in NOLA.  I’m moving on to the other places now.  I’m a bit wobbly and there’s 3 of everything, but damn I feel good in the big easy!
