There was, sadly, no getting around the line up at Galatoire's for one of the first floor dining room tables. The tradition of first come, first serve there was still place. With expanded dining facilities, Hallbjorn was able to grease the wheels and secure them a table in the second floor dining room without any trouble. The pair had a table near a window overlooking Bourbon Street, and although it was not as fine a tradition as waiting in line to eat on the first floor it still promised a very nice experience.<br/><br/>After they were seated and their orders taken, Hallbjorn glanced out the window. "There is a steamboat that still sails up and down the river twice a day. We could make a reservation to ride it if that interests you." He told her, reminded of how she was blown away at the size of the Mississippi river even in the glimpse between a few buildings.<br/><br/>"I know that so far you enjoy New Orleans." Hallbjorn said as he unfolded a napkin and placed it in his lap. "But if you are more comfortable in the desert we could move there when everything is resolved. I do not have a problem living in Jackrabbit Junction if you want to live there again." The large man told Kara and he meant it. It would not really matter where they lived to him so long as it was somewhere that Kara could thrive. The climate of Louisiana was different from that of Arizona or even neighboring Texas.<br/><br/>He had his phone out and was looking over the pictures that Kara had taken on their way here. "Hold up your hand." Hallbjorn told Kara, meaning the one with the ring. When she did he took a picture of that also. It belonged in there with everything else they had seen tonight. It was to commemorate the first night she wore it, although he imagined that there would be so many more in the future where it graced her finger. If she ever took it off. There might never be a reason that she would need to take it off.<br/><br/>"If New Orleans does agree with you, I was considering a small renovation to the house." Hallbjorn continued, putting the phone down on the table. "I recall how much you enjoyed the large bath at the Grand Hyatt. We could have something like that added to the house here. There are some baths, but they are small and conventional tubs. Nothing that we could share, least of all as we did at the hotel."
