I absolutely love your mother's cooking videos and would watch them often. I'm really enjoying your videos as well. Thanks for keeping her channel and her memory alive❤
Hi Steve and Family👋This was fun and interesting!! Thanks for taking me along!! I hope you have a happy and healthy new year!! Take care God Bless and hope to see you soon!!♥️
Thank you for taking us with you on this trip! Lovely architecture! Wish they had preserved all old beautiful architeccture everywhere!...Where I live, in Sweden, most of it is gone😔
I recognized Cafe Dumonde as soon as I saw the shot. My husband, son, and I stopped in New Orleans on the way home to North Carolina from a trip to Texas. It was pre Katrina, so was nice to see some things I recognized. We loved their beignets. We stayed in the Garden District, but went to the French Quarter a few times.
Thanks for the Birds Eye view if NO! I’ve never been there so it’s all new to me. Love the French Quarter. I too am amazed at the lack of people on the streets.
Lived across the Mississippi River in Gretna for 21/2years. Loved the area, people, food, atmosphere, architecture, but the everyday summer showers not so much! Thanks for sharing❤
Thank you for taking me back to one of my old stopping grounds! I live very near to Pensacola,Fl and my husband and I would go there very often ! We would occasionally bring our girls to ride the trolley,go to the zoo and ride the steam ships! Lots and lots of good memories there! Lots of great food!
Love the French Quarters. Streets look very clean. I've never seen the streets so empty of people. Love the food and the architectural buildings and the little gems behind them. Take care, and Happy New Year.
I used to live in Baton Rouge LA. NOLA was a favorite place to go on the weekends. It looks like it hasn't changed much. I did love the food there but Bourbon St. has its own special kind of odor, a mix of "booze and urine". Happy New Year to you Colonel and the family.
Many thanks Colonel for lettin' us cavort with the ravishing Mrs. Ritter, Bella and you good sir! Bourbon street right now is so quiet and tranquil but one month and half, more or less into the future and it will get crazy hectic! Love the ol' style buildings, is it o.k. to call it "colonial"? Thank you Colonel Sir, 👍and maybe now your beautiful wifey will appear with ya on screen?😂😉
Great video! Once I visited New Orleans I’ve never had a desire to vacation anywhere else. I now visit so often that I feel like a local. Beautiful city with beautiful people.
Happy New Year!!! Great viewing! We visited New Orleans several times in the years we lived in Baton Rouge back in the 80’s. Loved taking our girls to zoo in New Orleans back then while they were still young. It was a great zoo but not sure how it is now since Katrina! Would love to visit the WWII museum! My father fought in the Army in the South Pacific for 3 years, mostly in the Philippines, I think. So will be watching for that video!
Steve, I see you made it to my State -- Louisiana! I was thinking the same as you said about the cathedral -- it was very reminiscent of Europe! Glad you guys enjoyed the trip. Yes, Mardi Gras is a crazy time -- not just in New Orleans.
A walk well worth every footstep. I agree the architecture is so beautiful with all the iron railings and the balcony’s. I guess that is what they call the French Caribbean influence. I especially love the bright colors of the buildings. Theyre so cheerful and can definitely make your day. I also like their courtyard gardens where the homes are built around the courtyards. I’ve love the French quarter and the garden district. Thanks for sharing. I love New Orleans.
Happy New Year Stephen 🎉🎉🎉 and to all the wonderful Ritter family. Well, New Orleans, thank you for the tour, amazing place, I'd love to visit. Harry Connick Junior comes to mind immediately with the sound track. 😊 Take care family.xo😊❤
Hi Steve, I Love New Orleans and Cafe du Monde is my favorite place there. I can eat beignets morning, noon, and night! Also, love the food there. K Paul’s is my favorite place to eat dinner there. When I worked for the airlines, I probably went to New Orleans eight or more times. Love the St. Charles trolley to the Garden District too. My husband and I would go there for Jazz Fest. It’s a fun town with fantastic food. Thanks for the memories. Hope you go back and have a wonderful trip. Kindness, Teresa
@@cjfrost54 NO WAY!!! So sad. It’s been a long time since I’ve been to New Orleans. Haven’t been there since I stopped working for the airlines. Thanks for letting me know.
Love the video and love NOLA - been there a few times - last time was for the 49er vs Ravens Super Bowl in 2013, yeah, we lost, but the partying was as good, if not better, than Mardi Gras. Happy New Year to you and your family!
Just saw this - oh NOLA! The memories! I was born and raised in Hammond - a little NE of there. I have family there and we go back frequently. I miss the food terribly. I can cook most of the dishes, but I really miss the boiled crawfish and going to Cafe DuMonde for our beignets. Have walked on the MS Riverwalk so many times. No place like it, but I don't desire to live there anymore - had more than enough of our share of hurricanes.
Oh, New Orleans!!! I love that architecture, and the atmosphere, and the food! Do you think I've been there?? Lol Our niece and some family went to the play-off game there this past weekend, and posted some of the same places. It's an amazing place.
Hi Steve! Thanks for sharing this walk around! I'm just going through this channel to see if I missed any videos you have posted and somehow I missed this one.🤦♀️ The closest I've ever been to seeing Bourbon Street is eating my favorite... Bourbon Street chicken on the buffet at Golden Corral lol😊 Stay safe friend 🙏❤
The architecture of the French Quarter of New Orleans is beautiful, but the last time I went there, it was so raunchy, I was embarrassed to have brought my kids. We left pretty quickly. We did enjoy some of the plantations nearby, though.
We went back over to Bourbon St for dinner that night. Definitely a different "vibe" at night. I've heard it's very, very "interesting" during Mardi Gras.
I do much enjoy your travel videos. Beautiful Places. How about showing us a visit around your town ? Will you be doing some more cooking videos? Good to see you. Happy New Year. Any plans?
Fabulous video. Thanks for sharing your visit to NOLA. Just a suggestion: when panning the camera, could you possible do it slower. Gets some people dizzy when the camera is panned too fast. Beautiful filming, however, thank you.
A lot like Charleston Being from DE my daughter at CofC gets me to Charleston often. She loves Charleston, but...TBH not my favorite thing...busy cities..
