Anniversary Trip Planning

Jesse and I are both so excited, we are going to New Orleans for 2 days and 3 nights for our anniversary this year. We were trying to decide where to go, since we're down south and we've been up north for our previous anniversaries and have always wanted to go south, we didn't quite know what to do since we're already down south. :)

So we finally decided on New Orleans, so we're going to stay at the Oak Alley Plantation that also has a bed and breakfast on the property as well. Here's a picture of the driveway up to the plantation, isn't it beautiful?



And we're staying in the Rene House, in the Victorian Room which looks awesome.




So we will definitely be planning a tour of the plantation house, can't wait for that. And we are thinking we'll probably do a nice steak dinner on the night of our anniversary. We also would like to go to the zoo or aquarium since it's the 5th biggest and best one in the US, don't know if we'll go to both of them or not. Oh and there is also an Oktoberfest festival that we are thinking about attending as well. We hope to take a lot of pictures and have a wonderful time celebrating four years together! :)

  1. so fun! I went to the Aquarium of the Americas there when I was about 12 - it's amazing. I pet some nurse sharks! They were really rough feeling, not at all slimy like they look.

    I'm excited for you guys! N.O. is such a fascinating place. Make sure you eat some beignets at Cafe du Mond while you're there if you go to the French Quarter/downtown. (If you're willing to splurge on some delicious carbs!) Have a great time!

  2. @Johanna - I actually have eaten beignets at Cafe du Mond before, my dad grew up in NO and he took us there a long time ago, it was really fun. I might be willing to splurge on some carbs, but I'm doing so good with losing weight it will be hard, lol.
