i got up early today and spent my morning at City Park, the largest park in New Orleans. it was a beautiful day for a run-- sunny and cold-- and i even got a little sunburned. the park is really beautiful, with lots of spaces to explore-- big bodies of water, sporting fields, a golf course, an amusement park, a school, the art museum, a sculpture garden... so much to see, and a great solo adventure for a sunny day.
so far, i've been able to stay pretty busy, and which has kept me from feeling lonely. sometimes i do think, though, that New Orleans is specifically designed to make you feel as if everyone is having a great time, and you're the only one that's left out.
other big milestones today? visited my first Winn-Dixie, killed my first cockroach, and taught the girl at the liquor store how to say "Oregon."
