This blog entry consists of two adventures. 1. The voyage of four Montreal students to New Orleans 2. Our group's first exposure to the destruction of Hurricane Katrina. 1. 5 of us left Montreal on route for New Orleans with a stop over in Washington. 1 of us made it on the connecting flight and was able to join the rest of the group on time in New Orleans. The other 4, including myself were not so lucky. We missed our connecting flight, for reasons I do not want to get into and had to fly through Charlotte, NC.
