At devotions DCPC Youth answer the question, "Where did you see God today?" This blog recounts our stories, the places we find ourselves in God's story, and the ways we see God working in the world around us.

July 11, 2010

Hello. Today we ventured into the city of New Orleands with nothing but a poncho and a childlike sense of wonder (poncho optional). It started pouring very soon after we got there and we ate at Mother's World's Best Baked Ham. We met the Brown family, former New Orleans residents who relocated to Davidson after hurricane Katrina, but have since moved back to the Big Easy. We split into groups and mine (Hannah R. Cameron, Greg, Thomas, Duncan, Kester, and myself) went to Bourbon St. (but don't worry, it was in the daytime) and Jackson Square. We went into some gift shops, Voodoo stores, and one called Hippie Gypsy. It was interesting that it was raining because we saw a little of what it was like when Katrina was starting. There was almost a foot of water in some places. One store had flooded to about 7 inches of water was still open. Then at the end of the day, we headed to our camp. The end. Or to be continued....? -Sara B.
