Taylor - Winter in NOLA

Some may say you haven’t experienced the holiday season until it snows, but down here in the party
city we would disagree and say you don’t know what it means to have Christmas in New Orleans! As for
the snow we’ve had our share and that’s enough for me because one of those rare instances was soon
followed by the infamous Katrina.

As a diehard New Orleanian the cold is not my friend; 70 degrees is about as low as I would see fit to
leave the house otherwise all schools and obligations should be put on hold until it warms up a bit.

Living in New Orleans, you learn at a young age to make the best of any situation and continue the
party. So snow or no snow we will continue to sit back with a cup of hot egg nog, bundled up like
Eskimos as we sit around the TV and enjoy the Christmas season!! Happy Holidays

Taylor, age 16
