Thread: Going to NOLA

No fishing today! I've fished everyday since coming down on the 2nd. Taking the wife and daughters to NOLA. I think I'm already getting the shakes.

You are doing the right thing as hard as it might be , it will pay dividends later on in you stay .

Had a good day. Ate at Johnny's and Mother's. Couple drinks at Pat O'Brian's.

Cafe Du Monde for some coffee and beignets?

It was my daughter first time and we were there 30 years ago!

The ferry is between Fort Morgan and Dauphin Island. It cuts out the drive around the bay and you pick up I-10 west of Mobile.

Sammy's on Elysian Fields ($13-$15 per person) is only open for lunch but is great and for the French Quarter, Drago's on the boardwalk (best charbroiled oysters in the world) and K-Pauls in the French Quarter is also very good.
