I found out Friday morning that 2 of my cousins took a trip to New Orleans last week without telling my aunt....but they are adults so.... Anyway, they're known to take off to have fun (usually to gamble) so I didn't think much about it last weekend but time went on and my aunt got really worried. My older brother started calling around to mutual friends and found out that they went to New Orleans last week.
So to make a long story short my aunt just called saying my cousins are in someplace called New Roads. My older cousin said that they couldn't get out of NO when the hurricane hit and then didn't know what to do after but on Wed. they decided to walk out. My cousin said that some 19 year old kid in an El Camaro (spelling?) driving his mom and grandma out of New Orleans stopped for them. It took awhile for them to get a hold of anyone from my family but they finally did and I'm sooooooo happy! It's about 5am here and I can't sleep after hearing from my aunt.
