8 hours on the street, no serious mishaps, lots of waiting around, too many carriages and too few tourists. However, I did get two trips, one group of four and one single person. They seemed pleased with my banter.

Tomorrow is Saturday, it may be better. I'll try to get out there a bit earlier.

I'm still learning the ropes. There are hundreds of things to remember about mule care and driving the right paths. Fortunately, my 6 years as a walking tour guide in the Quarter made the important part easy.

The weather was great! The mule Bosco was smart and responsive. They all do their best to teach me! Red the wrangler my have my animal selected tomorrow.
