My husband and I only spent one night in New Orleans and never expected to enjoy it so much.The people were so warm and excited to share their history.The French Quarter was wonderful .Didn’t get to explore BoubanStreet.Im sure lots of bars there. Food is great everywhere dont think you can get bad food there.City never sleeps and no one gets in a hurry.Also the entertainment is everywhere amazing talent.Cant wait to go back!!!!!Enjoy

if you are gay, I suggest club Oz on Bourbon, but stop at the Tropical Isle and get a hand grenade before
