We arrived around 3:30pm (CDT) in New Orleans. The house we're staying at is about 5 blocks from the French Quarter. It has 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, full kitchen, formal dining room, family room, and sitting room. It sleeps 9 - 12 people and there are only 4 of us so plenty of space.
The only problem with renting is finding a grocery or what we consider a grocery. It took us a while to find a grocery (supermarket) that wasn't just a food mart (which didn't have what we wanted) :) Oh well, live and learn and check out more before next trip.
The temperature was in the high 90's and humid but was bearable late in the afternoon, with temperatures dropping as the evening progressed.
We ate at a restaurant name Praline Connection. For what we paid for we received a lot of food and had some take home containers, we high recommend. We had everything from the seafood platter to poboys to meatloaf to fried chicken, all good!!!. We are pretty tired and will call an early night.
Tomorrow we are going on a Swamp tour and probably the Farmer's Market and of course to see what New Orleans nightlife is like. Looking forward to listening to live blues and jazz.
Have a wonderful night!!!
