jgmpuma Posted March 8, 2021 #1 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Slowly but surely. No cruises on the horizon and no live music except on the streets. Lots of people in the French Quarter this weekend enjoying the beautiful weather and ambiance. Restaurants are at 50% capacity, bars at 25% inside and the usual drinks to go. Our mayor has been very strict on opening up the city. Painful, but Orleans Parish has some of the best numbers in the country, and they are still improving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyGirlJen Posted March 21, 2021 #2 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Thanks for sharing. I'm happy to hear it's in the upswing. I'm cruising out of there in January 2023, and it won't come soon enough. 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgmpuma Posted May 10, 2021 Author #4 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Saturday was a beautiful day in the Quarter. Restaurants are open: most of the old ones and some new ones as well. Music clubs are coming back, including some of our old favorites. Still no cruises, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40yearcruiser Posted June 25, 2021 #6 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Glad to hear things are opening up again. We will be there in August after a river cruise and are hoping things will be in full swing by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imola Posted July 3, 2021 #7 Share Posted July 3, 2021 We were there in late March and things were pretty open then. Rode the streetcars, got into every restaurant we wanted, walked wherever we wanted. Music was in the air and on the streets. Tours and carriage rides. We had a great time. Stayed at a hotel a next to Jackson Square. Enjoy your time. We will be back there in October. Our favorite place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
