wrigley80 Posted February 10, 2014 Author #926 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Another thing on our to-do list in New Orleans was to ride on a streetcar. We chose to ride on the Canal Street route. We parked out by the cemeteries and rode the streetcar all the way downtown WHOA....where did everybody go?? Riding on the streetcars is a true New Orleans experience...so much fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getmeonthatboat Posted February 10, 2014 #927 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I have loved your review!! You can tell the you and your father truly love cruising and life! :D I can't wait to go to NOLA and sail on the Dream when it arrives! I have another question for you. Do you know if NOLA has luggage express? I know they have it in Florida. I like the convenience of putting my bags outside my cabin and not having to deal with them until I am home! Thanks again for another awesome review!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again for another awesome review!! Thank You so much. Oh yeah you are so right....my dad and I definitely love cruising. But we love cruising with each other even more. :) My dad and I are cruising on the repositioning cruise that will bring the Carnival Dream to New Orleans. We have never been on the Dream and 9-days will be our longest cruise. I am not sure if they have the luggage express service in New Orleans. We have never used that service but I have heard that it is quite popular Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrigley80 Posted February 10, 2014 Author #933 Share Posted February 10, 2014 After our ride on the streetcar and driving around the Garden District.....it was now time for Yep you guessed it.....Another Hand Grenade at the Tropical Isle You know it is a high class establishment when there is a "Pee Off Contest" game in the Men's Bathroom. The bathrooms were like walking into a horror movie. The women's bathroom just had a curtain hanging up no doors We left Tropical Isle with our drinks and headed for a walk down Bourbon Street The next bar we came to was Fat Tuesday....not too busy here either. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrigley80 Posted February 10, 2014 Author #934 Share Posted February 10, 2014 After a couple drinks we decided that it was time to get some lunch. We went to Pat O'Briens :) I just loved their courtyard area Pat O'Briens was such a nice relaxing pace to have lunch. My only regret now is that I never tried a Hurricane while we were there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
