let's take a trip (Largo)

Their research would be taking place in the university of New Orleans so for this trip everything including the night life would be pretty central. So having arrived at the hotel Largo was making calls to confirm library resources and access to the older written records.

So once this was done they still had the evening in New Orleans. Plenty to do and see as well as to eat and drink. Largo would even get Kyle and Sita something as it would be unfair to leave them out. So catching up with Brett outside the hotel Largo looked happy and relaxed now they were settled into their rooms. "We have the entire evening to ourselves. So what do you want to do first?" he posed to Brett.

You didn’t always need alcohol with your meal. So Largo suggested “we should find a nice local restaurant that does the regional dishes. The hotel reception should be able recommend one. Then afterwards we can have a look round and see where that leads us”. A solid plan of action but in any city you could find trouble as well as petty crime. You might also find interesting and good things.

So after getting a recommendation and the directions that is what Brett and Largo ended up doing. “Let’s hope this place is as good as the excitable receptionist thought” Largo chuckled once they got seated and the menu was brought over to them. They’d already seen how colourful the journey was just leaving the hotel.

This city did have a lot of history in its very bones and buildings. You’d have a good chance of finding a voodoo shop as well as many other things.

Having dealt with petty hoodlums together as well as dealing with a pirate ghost would build trust between two people. In fact Largo still had that knife but hadn't brought it here. "It started with us dealing with those sorry excuses for goons but do they still give you trouble?" Largo quietly posed. Then added "there will be plenty to see and do even before we hit the university records. I've also made an appointment to go through church records as those are an underappreciated source when it comes to archeology. I do try and travel during the summer break when the chance presents itself but I had summer school this time round and trying to get settled with Estella. Which reminds me; I need to bring them all back something". Even his ex-wife Louisa would get something from here.

Largo wasn’t sure at this point what he’d end up bringing back but he was sure he’d find something here. “I’m sure something will show itself but the easiest to get will be my grandson. My ex-wife and daughter will be harder. Just because we divorced didn’t stop us co-parenting” he replied. The guy time would continue but he wouldn’t let things slide with Louisa again. Like him she was finding a life on the island.

"Ask away Brett" Largo replied and added "it did help Estella when we could both be there. I also tried to cut down on my time away from them which was what led to the divorce in the first place. So the job offer from the Ashford Isle university came at a good time. Now my little girl is grown up she wants to be a fashion designer and I doubt that being a parent will stop her".

Estella still being at school might still have difficulties to deal with but he helped as much as he could.

Treasure or the rumours of it sounded interesting. “How far back does your records go? And who could have left treasure buried in what is now the slums?” he posed to Brett. His best guess was it involved pirates but perhaps could go back a bit further.

“I could look over what you find but when was the building that the brothel is now built? he added. Most of the slums wouldn’t have gone back to the pirate period. Those were built later on as far as he knew.

“I think you’re onto something”.
