No one should be awake at this hour.

...but we are. It's 5:11 am, Tyler just got back from the NET party, I just woke up from my three hours of sleep, and we're about to catch our shuttle to the airport.

This just happened:

(Tyler gets out of the shower, whistling.)

Cari: You cannot be this cheerful at 5:15 in the morning. I will stab you.

Tyler: Fair enough!

It's sick how excited he is to be up right now.

Anyway, we're heading out now. See you back home shortly!

Jackson Square

This is the view of the cathedral from Jackson Square, which is about a block from where we're staying.

Today, I went to a seminar on the aesthetics and process of the New York Neofuturists, who are very funny, very talented, and very heavy drinkers (ask Tyler about that one). They're just one of the NET companies we've met over the past few days.

Flight out is tomorrow at 7:30 (thanks, Stamets. Ugh). It's been a great trip so far. Thanks to everyone who followed along on the blog as we figure out what we're doing.

This is my new favorite place.

Lunch at Cafe Reconcile

Tyler and I are just sitting down to lunch after our tour of Katrina devastation. The perfect thing to lift our spirits: authentic NOLA food. Just look at this menu!

Goodnight!

Hello, Rogues!

It's the end of day one...finally. It's been crazy busy, and already we've been to several lectures, seen four visiting ensembles give very interesting performances, and taken a tour of the French Quarter (which we are smack in the middle of). New Orleans is gorgeous, and Tyler and I are both super excited to be here.

More pictures and audio tomorrow. In the meantime, do yourself a favor and check out Chris Rose. He was our keynote speaker today and he's very, very cool, and he has a lot to say.

Goodnight from New Orleans!

The lovely room we have been meeting in.
