Our annual Mom/Daughter was surprise trip this year that took us to New Orleans for a spooky great time! From the ease of our flight, to the fabulous hotel, the reservations for dinner & brunch to the reservations for the ghost & vampire walking tour to the list of endless other things to do, see & eat.The Hotel Monteleon where our room was a suite on the 15th floor w/an amazing view of the Mississippi River! It had 1.5 bathrooms, which is wonderful for two gals traveling together!We walked & walked (about 17.5 miles) — first stop was to walk by the river, beignets at Cafe du Monde with the best coffee! Then a look around St. Louis Catheral — there was are festival happening all weekend and we admired the art, bought some art, listened to great jazz & I even had a Tarot Card reading, which was amazing & fun! We took a mule & buggy ride around the French Quarter, and enjoyed Maya and her mule, Bourbon. Dinner was at Sylvain where the food was great but our server, Courtney was even better! Warm, friendly, made great recommendations & was just a pleasure to speak to. Halloween dawned with us all ready in our witch costumes. Breakfast at The Ruby Slipper, never disappoints! Beignets again, for lunch! Marie Laveau’s House of Voodoo, Beckham’s Book Shop w/a store cat named Joanie. A stop in Dark Matter Oddities & Artisan Collective where we bought rings made of copper & a crystal. We had reservations for our ghost & vampire tour, we met up at the VooDoo Lounge where Breon took us on an amazing walking tour of the French Quarter and talked about hauntings, ghosts & vampires — very interesting and gave us a lot to think about. We had room service, once again the hotel did not disappoint. Saturday was a brunch reservation at The Court of Two Sisters. The courtyard was spectacular! What a wonderful setting for a meal. Sadly, the service was less than stellar & the food was decent, not great. Both Uber drivers were friendly & great drivers. Overall, a very, very successful trip and one we will remember for a very long time! BTW: this is trip #3 with Pack Up & Go.
