Baton Rouge

Arrived safely and soundly on Sunday evening, broke my no driving when its dark but only for 40 minutes which really for me was like 40 hours....oh well.

Firstly, its flippin hot I LOVE IT it is very reminscent of Suva City except its America so all the consumerism avenues. I went for my daily 3 km walk and I am sure by the end it I lost all hydration. ha.

Taryne, my cousin whom I am visiting, has her practices at 5.30 am until 10.30 luckily I sleep till just before she gets back ;). Today she had my try Boudin balls (no its some sort of animal testicle) and it was awesome. Its ground up sausage, rice and spice hmmmmmm, I also tried fried dill pickle and it was okay but soooo not a boudin ball. I also tried a sonic milkshake, it was da bomb. This week I will try alligator for sure.

Taryne's teammates are awesome young women from all across the south all playing for LSU soccer (FYI I do know own a lot of LSU swag and did go and see Mike the Tiger - yes a real tiger).

The adventure continues tomorrow with the sun. Yay the sun. (Okay in the background as I type is the Real Housewives of New Jersey like holy smokes what a rank show, totally inapp.)

peeps stay tuned
