Default Re: New Orleans travel stories?

We were in New Orleans this past April and stayed on Bourbon Street right down in the French Quarter. The hotel was the Royal Sonesta and since it was a business trip we just had a double room. The rooms were fine nothing fancy. The food in the hotel was very good. At night Bourbon Street is very noisy, lots of people walking about drinking and having a good time. Lots of young people. I did walk around all the streets in that area and did not have any problems.

We went to the Cafe I think it was Mondue that is famous for it's benets not sure of spelling. Very noisy and busy but they were every bit as good as every one says. This was down near the St. Louis Cathedral which is very beautiful.

We did drive out to Oak Alley Plantation and is well worth the trip. Grounds and house are fabulous. There are beautiful Live Virginia Oaks that were over 300 years old. There are a lot of other Plantations in the area to visit.
