47.5lbs. I’m a pro. Travel for work so I can pick a bag up and tell. Sad.

The DD on the other hand....3 lbs over. Ever do the luggage shuffle when you check in? Yep, did that.

Hemingway Daiquiri.

Yum.

So, you ever wonder why you can’t get any ground service and it takes forever to get off a plane? Welp, apparently they are playing basketball.

Yeh, that’s what they do in New Orleans!

 

Welllllll, after the payoffs....it wouldn't be football.

Hello Bourbon Street. Where do you go when you need food, and are willing to pay stupid prices for a burger? Hard Rock of course.

Looking forward to reading your live review.   Thank you for taking the time to post.

[Gatorj]

So, getting the girls some fun juice. DS still hasn’t made it yet. We may be in bed before he does. If anyone cares, the Bourbon Cowboy has 3 for 1 before 9pm. And a mechanical bull stay tuned for that. DD said yes.

[Gatorj]

And it happened.

Have a blast before your cruise and of course on it.  Will be following along.

Asked someone where to find the best chicken in town.

It’s not this.


We do however have “Modernos” in our hotel.

[Gatorj]

Who’s with me?

[MrFunInTheSun]

Thanks for bring us along! Where was the best fried chicken at?

 

Great first "Live" of what will soon be many more.

No idea. Got distracted.

When shopping at Walgreens in New Orleans.

This.

[Gatorj]

I promise she didn’t have any of this.

[Gatorj]

She wanted me to update the above by saying “yet”.

I still say no.

[Gatorj]

Cornet for Po Boys. And drinks. Dear lord a lot of drinks. When your crew takes up the entire side of the bar. And it’s not even 3pm.

These rebound patches better be something.

[Gatorj]

Tomorrow the ship will be right there.

[MNTwinsMom]

Missing the shenanigans!  Never again!

Gluten free. So it has to be healthy, right?

Following along.  Love reading cruise reviews.  And if you think your winter is bad, you should have been in Wisconsin.  And snow/ice not done yet!

Going on the Breakaway end of April in a studio cabin so interested to hear what they think of the cabins. Have a fun vacation!

That would be Brothers. There’s one on Carondelet near Canal Street. Get the fried chicken and meat pies.

Good morning New Orleans.


So a little about the hotel JW Marriott. We chose this hotel because I stay almost exclusively in Marriott, and therefore have a ton of points. This hotel was 35k points per night. While nice, it’s just “ok” as Marriotts go, and not really up to par with other JW’s. They literally only have 7 suites (that’s not many for a 400 room hotel) and the rooms were standard fare otherwise - not $400 per night rooms if you know what I mean. The bar area was nice, and bartender George was great. Location is the real draw, as it’s 2 blocks from Bourbon and tons of good food nearby.

Would we stay here again? Sure, but if the Marriott across the street or Sheraton next door we’re priced favorably that would be my pick.

Next up, headed to the port.
