"Whoo-hoo! I just got back from a girls&amp;amp;#8217; weekend in New Orleans. We were celebrating Melissa&amp;amp;#8217;s upcoming wedding!Melissa, Anne, Caroline, and I had a blast without going wild. We&amp;#x27;re all in our thirties, and we were happy not acting like the feisty and drunk ladies Ryan lives for, haha! We ate fried alligator, crawfish pie, and beignets. We drank Hurricanes and Hand Grenades, whatever those are; we swam in a pool and saw some alligators on the bayou. Here&amp;amp;#8217;s a mini-album of our weekend: When I said, &amp;amp;#8220;This place looks like Disneyland,&amp;amp;#8221; Melissa said, &amp;amp;#8220;Disneyland was based on something real&amp;amp;#8212;New Orleans.&amp;amp;#8221; On our swamp-touring boat. If only more bachelorette weekends meant wearing earmuffs, not penis necklaces. This alligator likes marshmallows. That makes two of us! Bayou! Everyone but me held the baby alligator. He got a lot of action. (I decided it was just too much like a snake&amp;amp;#8212;dang!) That&amp;amp;#8217;s one legendary beer belly! Yes, I flashed some people on a balcony. I hope I didn&amp;#x27;t take womankind backwards a few steps. This photo was taken right after the flashing, but before the beads were flung at me. Have you ever been to New Orleans?
