First plane trip after three international flights... I was definitely a bit worried about how this would go. Additionally, we decided to travel with a car seat on the plane after realising that it is a half hour taxi from the airport into the French Quarter where we were staying.
We got there fine, and went to find the Farmers Market where we had planned on buying fresh fruit for snacks. The Farmers Market turned out to be less fruit and veggies and more local shops, like a spice shop, a local photographer and several prepared food stalls, which left us a touch worried about accessing fruit. It was also very crowded, and we were a touch exhausted after the early start (5am) and the travel, and a change in time zones.
Dinner: The Gumbo Shop, which is set up for tourists, but the wonderful thing is, the local food is so fresh and simple... So while our boys had grilled chicken and pasta, we had gumbo, and a sample dish containing jambalaya, crawfish etouffee, and red beans and rice.
