The tropical storm in the gulf is wreaking havoc on the Florida panhandle.  Here in NOLA we are seeing record temps.  Man is it hot! According to the weather report for today it will be partly cloudy skies. Low 78F. Winds light and variable.  Looks like another hot dry day. See you in NOLA!

The tropical storm in the gulf is no longer a threat to us my peeps.  It looks like Tropical storm Debby will end up north east of us.  Florida is getting the the rain bands now. With a stationairy storm there is always a chance of change though.  According to the weather report for today it will be a mix of clouds and sun with gusty winds. A stray afternoon thunderstorm is possible here in the Big Easy. High near 95F. Winds N at 15 to 25 mph.   Looks like another warm and breezy day. See you in NOLA!

Wet Wild & Wonderful!


Spring is festival season in Louisiana and at the New Orleans Audubon Zoo. Soul Fest was last weekend, a colorful celebration of African-American culture. Creole cuisine and soul food mixed with R&B and hip hop kicked off a round of happenings at NOLA’s own “animal house”. I have been to my share of Zoos and believe me when I say Audubon Zoo out shines them all. The Audubon Nature Institute is one class act.

Following directly on the heels of Soul Fest is Earth Fest, Asian Pacific American Society and then popular fund raisers for the Audubon Society, the Whitney Zoo To Do and Zoo To Do for Kids sponsored by Humana. These fundraisers will help underwrite a new attraction at our favorite Zoo called Cool Zoo, an animal themed splash park. Wet, Wild and Wonderful!

Cool Zoo is a new wet and wild splash park right at the Zoo. Highlights include jumping water spouts, a huge alligator (we are in Louisiana after all) water slide, a spider monkey soaker and water spitting snakes just to name a few! The splash park will offer three different splash zones with one specifically for toddlers and younger zoo goers.

In addition to all the custom animal features in the new Cool Zoo, there will be animal sounds in the “Sound Spray” area. When the water sprays you hear matching animal sounds like croaks, bleats, roars or squawks. The Caterpillar sprayer is designed to look like a monarch butterfly and the giant alligator’s tail is the waterslide! This new hot spot will be located between the Endangered Species Carousel and the Embraceable Zoo. Construction should begin soon. So get ready for some Cool Zoo fun.

Another exciting new attraction set to open this summer is Parakeet Pointe. Located at the Aquarium of the Americas, this will be an 800 square foot tropical environment and home to more than 1,000 free flying parakeets! For an even closer encounter, purchase a feed stick for a dollar and feed the bright beautiful little birds. These guys are all naturally curious and playful. The kids and you kid-like adults will love it!

There is a tropical storm in the gulf peeps, so be prepared just in case.  You know the drill. They are not sure were Tropical storm Debby will end up.   According to the weather report for today it will be partly cloudy and windy. A stray afternoon thunderstorm is possible. High 91F. Winds NE at 15 to 25 mph.   Looks like another warm and breezy day. See you in NOLA!
