New Year New Orleans

More often than not my most memorable trips are the ones that encapsulate all the five senses. New Orleans easily checks all these boxes.

Whether you get tickets to a jazz club, hear a street performer, or in one of the countless bars, you will not leave New Orleans without hearing music. Chances are it will be an excellent musician.

I spent a few years living in the south studying Historic Preservation; with that being said I have some certainty that Louisiana's Creole architecture and the influences from the French, African and Spanish is the most complex and elegant vernacular tradition in the US. You can see it, touch it and smell the walls of this city.

I guess you could lick the buildings too but I would save that for the food. Good lawd all that Creole & Cajun food! Mind you there is a subtle difference between the two. 

I could go on and on about the romance, intrigue and wonder of New Orleans but just go. Go and see it for yourself , if you have already been go again & then again.
