Better much than Z

The last time we were in NO was for our wedding anniversary pre Katrina. We stayed at a B&B in the Garden District and took the streetcar in to the city about a block from the French Quarters. It was wonderful. I wish I could remember the name of the place but I found it on the NO website. We were in the Louis Armstrong suite.

There was a lunch place I believe on Chanel street across from a place that had great pralines. It had the best corn beef and pastrami sandwiches. I think it had a man's first name. One dish unique to NO is barbecued shrimp. It's not like anything you get elsewhere. Nola's is also very nice but cozy.

If your wife is new to the area she may like to go on a Cajun swamp tour. It's always cooler there. The one we went to was off the interstate going north of the lake. You get to feed the gators and hold the babes. I was surprised at how high the gators can jump out of the water. I would not want to be in a canoe. Further down the interstate is a very famous plantation. The live oak front approach is used in many films.

We also took a ride on the paddle boat with Dixie jazz music and a buffet. It was a lot of fun in the evening.
