For my last adventure in New Orleans, I walked down Bourbon Street for the first time. My Airbnb host had warned me that Bourbon Street was vomit-y, so I’d avoided it. But if you go early enough in the morning it’s quite nice! Lots of neon. I never really clicked with New Orleans. It seems geared toward non-teetotalers who are outgoing and carnivorous. But the longer I stayed there the more things I found that suited me. (M.S. Rau was definitely a stand-out.) Also I think New Orleans was at a disadvantage because I was getting excited to go home.
