Glad you had a great time in NOLA! Andrew Jackson commanded the U.S. forces in the great victory over the British in the Battle of New Orleans, which was the last major battle of the War of 1812. He was also the 7th POTUS. He died long before the Civil War.

Hippies use back door, no exceptions. Guess that means me. Great tour. There is so much more to see than most people think. Can't wait to see where we go next.

You’re awesome Ryan, thank you!

Cute video. The Moonwalk is named after New Orleans former mayor Maurice "Moon" Landrieu, who passed last year.

Hey Ya'll that was great. Parts of New Orleans I've never seen. Just one thing ....did I hear you say that Andrew Jackson was in the Civil War? I think you're thinking of Stonewall Jackson. Andrew Jackson was before the Civil War He died in 1845. ekkkk I want some of those pastries from La Boulangerie. 🥰🤩

Yes someone’s else commented on my mistake also. Apparently we was an officer in the war of 1812. The signage on the statue didn’t say which war so I assumed, being the South and all…but you know what happens when you assume…!!

Those 'modest' one story homes in the Quarter will set you back at least $700,000 and they go to the millions. And all that with often no parking!!

I believe it. By “modest” I was talking more about structure and design, certainly not price. I definitely couldn’t afford to live there!

@@CubbyVanLife My wife and I looked into buying a house in the Quarter to spend half the year in NOLA and the other here in Coastal South Texas. We would rent it out the remainder of the year as an Airbnb. But we nixed the idea the more we looked into the area. We are still looking for something in Uptown or the Garden District so we could just have it our way and not worry about our stuff being trashed because we rented it out half the year. I've lived there before so I know what I'm getting into but I would recommend that anyone who is thinking of moving there needs to stay in a rental or Airbnb for at least three months to make sure that city us for you. I love it there but it's foolish and could be quite dangerous to move there and not feel out where it's safe(er) to live and to go out, what your neighborhood will be like, what type of neighbors will you want to have, etc. New Orleans in some parts is very traditional, polite, reverent, religious, and more conservative than you might think. Lots of neighborhoods there are very quiet night and day. There are different cultural rules there that they just know and you'll have to learn - sometimes the hard way.

FRERET is pronounced "fa-rette"......at least that's how "we" say it.
