The slogan for New Orleans is "Laissez les bon temp rouler" meaning "let the good times roll". Thanks to my biological brother, Jonathan, our day was spent maximizing our opportunity to experience the food, culture and history of the city. I had no idea how deeply I would connect with people who had survived a different natural disaster than I have. Unbeknownst to us, a little bit of Louisiana magic was already at work behind the scenes in ways I would not fully discover until getting together with family, many of whom I had never met, to scatter my birthmother Belle's ashes three days later.
