Abbey Youth Camp
Apr 4, 2007 by Critter from Houma

Overall Rating: 10

• A life-long memorable Christian experience that every girl should know and cherish.
• Going home! Well, now. No more camp abbey.

“I felt as someone. A part of me died when I heard camp was closed. My daughter and I cried for an hour. Camp abbey was a big part of my childhood, and I carried it onto my children. I went to camp for 8 years, and was a counselor for 4 years. My 2 oldest children have been lucky to have a chance to experience it, even as a counselor. I am so disappointed that my younger children will never be able to share with us the heart felt memories of the days at camp. I truly believe that camp abbey helped me to become the person I am today. My daughter and I both talk about how we never wanted to leave camp, or the friends we made there. It was always an emotional time that last night, and morning going home.”

Education America-Southeast College Of Technology, L L C
Feb 14, 2007 by Disapointed from New Orleans

Overall Rating: 1

• The instructors were very qualified.
• Too many students per classroom.

“Do not waste your money on this type of so called college. All they want is your money. The class rooms are jam packed with 30 or more students at one time. They didn't follow any text books throughout the entire course. Approximately 95% of the students that attended class on a regular basis made no effort to learn anything. I was one of about 6 students that showed up every day and made every minute count by learning as much as we could in the short amount of time we had. The problem was that 95% of the students that slacked off every day by just playing around and surfing on the interned never learning anything and just slowed the whole class down. The problem was the school didn't really care if we actually learned anything just as long as we paid the tuition on time. The instructors should have had more control over the students that disrupted the classroom and should have had the disruptive students thrown out.”

Anthony Bean Community Theater
Aug 7, 2006 by Ruth from Baltimore

Overall Rating: 10

• The connections between the love for music between generations.
• The seating was not the most comfortable, but worth it for the show.

“On Sunday, August 6, I was able to see the final performance of the ABCT kids summer program -- 'Annie Mae's Cafe' and 'Shut Up 'n Dance.' It was packed to standing room with adults and kids. The costumes and stage set were so good -- if you can imagine 8- to 18-year-olds in dress of the 1940s to 1960s, lip-synching with heartfelt emotion to songs like Otis Redding's 'I've Been Loving You' and Etta James' 'Don't Cry Baby,' among 21 others. The audience added a whole dimension to the performances, with the adults enjoying the added pleasure of watching the younger generation perform familiar songs cherished during younger days. When the play opened, the kids sat on a stoop, two of them complaining about staying with an uncle post-hurricane who listened to the blues all day long. They were upset because the blues music sounded so sad. The uncle walked by and talked about how he had lost his record player in the storm and couldn't play his old blues records with. He takes the kids to a special place where they could only go if they set aside their minds and felt with their hearts. The rest of the play is a lesson in the blues and what it means to feel the blues. As the kids performed on stage the audience, especially adults, laughed, clapped, whooped and shouted out to the players, "Go on, girl" and "Boys, it's going to be okay!" The audience reaction was just as much fun and part of the show as the performances. They also sang along. The two ladies sitting next to me commented during intermission that it was nice to see these young kids appreciating the blues, and learning -- with their hearts -- about the music their parents and grandparents loved. The entire second play was rap and hip-hop music, which possibly shocked the adults after the slower pace of the first play. 'Shut Up 'N Dance' was performed fully through dance and gesture -- no speech. It was a cool contract to see the hip-hop dance and the talent of the dancers.”

Abbey Youth Camp
Jul 15, 2006 by Avery from Covington

Overall Rating: 10

• Atmosphere. Counselors Environment. Fun. Attitude.
• Cold Showers. Nothing.

“I've been a camper for five years now. Camp Abbey is the best place I can imagine - the 'Camp Abbey' song includes a line that says 'It's easy to see that God sent a part of Heaven from above'. It's so true. The counselors are amazing, the campers are fantastic - It's home away from home. ”

Tidelands Country Club
Jun 18, 2006 by Koby from Cut Off, LA

Overall Rating: 5

• Great greens.
• Not so good fairways.

“Tidelands is a good little 9-hole, 18-tee box golf course. It is a great place to come and have fun with your family and friends. It may not be a great course, but it is fun just to get out their and have a good time.”

The Zoo Of Acadiana Inc
Jun 8, 2006 by shelly from lafayette

Overall Rating: 8

• The shade and size of the zoo.
• The size of cages and lack of cleanliness.

“This is a great little zoo. It is perfect for short or long visits and great for those very young or those a little older. The only reason I give the zoo and 8 is because the size of the cages some of the animals are in and the fact some of them are not so cleanly. The zoo itself is VERY shady so even on those hot days the heat is tolerable.”

Old Ursuline Convent
Jun 7, 2006 by Becky from North Little Rock, AR

Overall Rating: 9

• Think Da -Vinci Code.
• Need a guide.

“This was one of the most interesting tours I have ever seen. It is much better with a guide. Ask for Bob and plan ahead. He used to be there all the time. But now you have to ask for someone. I know that some of the city tours include this it is a must and so fascinating.”

• Best doctors, relaxing atmosphere, courteous employees, friendly

Lafayette Cemetery
Mar 9, 2005 by Meghan f . from Boston MA

Overall Rating: 9

• Historical, diffrent, imaginative
• Slightly morbid

“After you get over your inital shock that it is a cemetry, the only words that can be used to discribe this place is mysticly beautiful. Its lets your imagination play away, but you alway remeber that real people, familys are buried here. Its stunning marble and the epataphs are moving. Everyone should go see it because no one else honors their dead like this. I would love to have spent more time there, but they close extremly early(2:30 ct) so if you want to spend a good amount of time their plan accordingly. It is also very intresting that Interview with a Vampire and other movies have been shot at this cemetry.”
