Description
The French Quarter, from its founding in 1718, has always been a place where people enjoy drinks. We will make our way casually through the French Quarter and visit bars and talk about the history of these places and some fun facts. At each bar you will have the opportunity to buy your own drinks and I will suggest certain ones. Drink as much as you like or as few as you want. You do not have to get a drink at every bar that we visit. In New Orleans, drinks are taken to-go in disposable cups so if you are not finished when we move to the next bar it will be okay. Many of the bars we visit have great stories to tell.
