Tornado Watch

Linda I find tornadoes devastating they kill children and children’s parents.

It’s horrific the tragedy these tornadoes cause.

Bussineses and property wiped out, insurances doing what they do best as soon as you ring 2 claim they instantly look for a Get Out Clause

Hiya Linda! yes, I’ve been unfortunate to be in America during a tornado. July 10 2019 while in New Orleans they named it ” hurricane barry ” My birthday was coming up so I decided to treat myself  :) Me and the sister visited Memphis and New Orleans spending a week in each  city. Memphis was our first stop, done all the tourist things, Elvis and  graceland, sun studio, Martin luther king museum etc. Our last night fell on the 4th july we were invited to a rooftop party at the peabody hotel. The next morning we boarded the Amtrak train to New Orleans a nine hour journey which I prefer rather than hanging around airports and all that goes with it ! the train down to new orleans was great we had a family room with beds, a shower and upstairs restaurant :) only annoyance during our meal we had to sit with some woman ” a quaker ” who never shut up! anyway, back to our carriage to have a sleep for rest of the journey. We arrived at the Wyndham hotel New orleans in the French quarters , weather was very hot and humid ( New Orleans  is built on swamplands :) The day of my bday arrived the family back home had surprised me with a meal out in a beautiful restaurant. I called down to the hotel reception to be met with utter chaos! water was pouring into the hotel, sand bags everywhere . We were told to stay in our rooms as the hotel staff couldn’t get in for work that morning and wait inside the room a note would be delivered to our room explaining what’s happening. I turned  the tv on and was shocked at the pictures and footage on the local news! My phone was sending me warning of flash floods!! The flood defence walls around the Mississippi that were build after hurricane katrina went up all around the river. This wall could hold back  floods anything up to 19ft we were at 18ft! thankfully the water stayed put. Our flights got cancelled, lucky we had some food in the room because for 48 hours we were stranded in that room! Was annoyed the hotel took advantage of this by charging us double the cost to rebook for another two nights! gave them a nice review on trip advisor when we returned. I am hoping to go back sept this year so much I didn’t  get to see . Looking at Nashville then new Orleans :) Bourbon st cocktails were the bizz
