New Orleans Style... Family Reunion

Family reunions are an amazing time to

share
connect
reconnect

and four of our featured families
share adventures that can only be found

during a

"Nawlins Style" Family Reunion

in
"The Big Easy"
New Orleans, Louisiana!
---------------------------------------------------

The Beard Family

"The Family with Young Children"

Los Angeles to New Orleans

(approx. 1670 miles)

 By the time you get to kid
"Number 3"

you already know to schedule flights
according to your family needs...

Tip 1:
Make it early morning or late
evening so the kids can sleep

Tip 2:
Plan for child safety, quiet
entertainment, and comfort

Tip 3:
Pack fruit snacks to help little
ears with adjusting ear pressure

and

buckle up for an adventure

the entire family can enjoy!

Bayou Swamp Tour

searching for what lurks beneath the surface

provides a unique experience for these city kids

Then...

hop on a trolley 

and a riverboat

(two new vessels to add to your
"modes of transportation" list)

for a

Dinner Cruise 

"Welcome aboard the Creole Queen"

to enjoy an evening filled with

family

food

fellowship

The look on "Number 3's" face captures the sentiment!

So until next time...

Lapè Bondye a avèk ou

(God's peace be with you)
