New Orleans Time Travel

Day two in the south! We started off pretty slow this morning! The time difference might be winning but we pushed through best we could! We got our tours all set up with the concierge, had breakfast at the hotel and headed out on our first adventure, The Worlf War II museum! 

We had such an amazing time exploring! We watched a 4D movie about the US involvement and really enjoyed ourselves. 

Of course the movie made is a bit emotional and reminded us of all the brave people who stepped up to help during the war. 
I would totally suggest the Museum to any history nerds or any individuals who love learning :). 
After hours in the museum we headed to the water front to get on a a steam boat and do a tour of the Mississippi River.
 We got to see the city from the water and it was beautiful. Apparently the water is 200 feet deep in locations and the Mississippi travels through 31 states! (As you can see we love learning new things!)
It was a great time and we loved the trip. We even got to see a sugar factory in business which I was excited about, I love me some good sugar!
We got off the boat around 5:30 or so and decided it was nap time and spent the rest of the day in our room ordering room service, life is rough. =P. Tomorrow we are off to a plantation and we are doing research now! I think it's safe to say we are making the trip educational :).
