May 29, 2010
Dear Ray and Kim,
What a timely expansion of the soul and the senses that last week
was!
Exactly what was needed by two routine-bound, fog-chilled San
Franciscans to
open up and savor the world anew!
To hear the very best music flowing out in the streets day and night,
not
cordoned-off in a concert hall, but part of the intimate fabric of a
city's
character and a climate and a whole 24/7 way of life
-- that just felt organic and right.
Music mixed with the smells and tastes of N'Awlins cooking, the relaxed
conversation with strangers, the ever present sense of water
surrounding,
endangering and yet enabling everything.
Thank you for your hospitality and generosity in sharing all these
treasures
and more with us. It was as perfect a six days as I can remember.
Our very best from Noe Valley, the Fillmore, Pacific Heights, and
Browser
Books!
The San Franciscans
We love to host nice, relaxed people-- people who enjoy new surroundings and experiences-- people who can "go with the flow."
We try to steer clear of the formal, pretentious crowd-- no "putting on airs" here.
No children or pets, and there is a 3-night minimum and a limit of two persons to a room.
We met in Copenhagen, got engaged in Helsinki, got married in Canada, and now run our B&B in New Orleans :-)
Please come stay with us if you think we're your kind of place.
And remember that our place is "funky", with a "decrepit New Orleans vibe"-- kind of shabby chic-- and chock full of interesting stuff all around.

Directions from airport:
Take I-10 East
into New
Orleans. Follow I-10 into city staying in right lane and take
what looks like
an exit with Slidell posted above (it's still I-10).
Take the Esplanade
Avenue
Exit (the next one after the Vieux Carre Exit) and turn right.
Go one
and a
half blocks to Esplanade Avenue and turn right at the traffic light.
Proceed
less than a mile to our street, Dauphine, and turn left. Go 5-6 blocks
to 2316
Dauphine to La Dauphine (on the right).
(Unbelievably, half the taxi drivers at the airport do not know the streets of the French Quarter-- even with a million tourists a month heading there. So be prepared to direct them.)
