The film crew is working by the time we get back. They are filming "Patriots" starring Forrest Whitaker. Mr. Whitaker is upstairs on set filming right when we want to shower. Unfortunately, the showers re next to the gym. The gym is their movie set. Quiet on the set! After a bit of negotiation, they broke for lunch and the women used both the men's and women's showers VERY quickly so we could be done by the time they returned. We got to Emeril's in time for our 6:30pm reservation. We ate well - from the crab topped potato chip to our entrees to the "one of everything" dessert. The dessert was from our Capital Campaign Consultant, Kurt. He is friends with Emeril's General Manager (or someone...) and was able to arrange the reservation for us.
The movie was still filming when we got back so we took a a walk and experienced Bourbon Street. We heard the music and caught beads tossed to us from balconies (no other requirements asked except that we catch them...). The movie was still going when we returned, but wrapped for the day shortly thereafter. We all zonked out in bed quickly.
