My wife and I had never been to New Orleans, and we were very much looking forward to this trip. We couldn't have asked for better hosts than Karen and Kelley! Their knowledge of New Orleans really helped us newbies in getting around and enjoying the spirit of the city. Their house in the historic district of Algiers Point was inviting and beautifully furnished. Our room was very comfortable and featured a wrap around porch that we took advantage of every night. The neighborhood is residential with several bars/restaurants within easy walking distance. The ferry that takes you over to Canal Street is a short walk away, and a great convenience if you want to party downtown and not worry about driving home. Karen's breakfasts were delicious; she used local ingredients s much as possible (bananas and Satsumas right off the trees in her yard!), and were based on our schedule and tastes. It was a fabulous trip all around (OK , the Saints beat the G-Men in one of the highest scoring games ever; bummer), and we look forward to coming back again. Thank you Karen and Kelley!
