Bourbon Street New Orleans

En effet, on est rendu au point le plus au sud de notre voyage. Après un peu plus de 4,000 km, on a finalement atteint la Louisiane et plus particulièrement la Nouvelle-Orléans.

On a dû traverser la Mississipi au complet pour se rendre ici, via la route 55. Cette route a de particulier que la majorité des haltes routières sont sous …

Our plan was to stop in Baton Rouge for the night but if you take just about an hour detour and plan it right you can hit up New Orleans for dinner. Neither of us had been so that is exactly what we decided to do. I really don't know much about New Orleans but it didn't give me the best first impression. The city seemed dirty, run down and not very …

My mom recently visited a friend in New Orleans, and went to lunch at the famous Galatoire's. There, she saw a table nearby full of women for a bridal luncheon, and she had the idea that she would like to do just that for my sister's Bridal Party! We live in California, so it isn't hard to see the gaping issue with this idea... However, my mom …

I made it!! Finally!! A Dream come true...New Orleans!!

I left Portland early in the morning under cloud and light rain. After a 3.5 hour transit in Houston, I arrived in muggy, thunderstormy, hot and sultry New Orleans. It was incredible - the smell reminded me of the tropics...the wet earth smell rising up. Oooooh, I was happy to be here …

With our flight leaving at 7.15am, our day started at 4am. The check in process was way more vigilant than our domestic flights, understandably. Our flight to New Orleans detoured via Denver, where we stopped for a few hours. We stayed inside the terminal as the outside temp was below zero, and we saw snow on the mountains coming into Denver.
