If New Orleans isn’t exactly top of mind when it comes to places for great family vacations, it’s time to think again!
There is so much fun for families in the Big Easy, and some of these activities are new this summer.
For example, guests this summer are loving Audubon Aquarium’s Parakeet Point — set against the backdrop of the Mississippi River right at the foot of world-famous Canal Street, where hundreds of parakeets flock and fly and interact with guests. Visitors are invited to purchase a feed stick for a dollar and feed these personable birds. There are 800 birds in the exhibit, which opened to rave reviews this past spring.
