Words to live by: #bewildandwander I am having so much fun on my weekend getaway!! Sometimes it's great to escape for a little. I love to learn about the places I visit: Here are 5 fun facts about #NOLA! "1. New Orleans Is Known To Be The Place Where Voodoo Was Introduced Into The US. Spooky! One of the most prominent figures of New Orleans was Marie Laveau, an oracle who performed numerous exorcisms and voodoo rituals and who became widely known as the Voodoo Queen back in the 1800s. 2. The Creole Cuisine If there is one thing the New Orleans is famous for in terms of gastronomy, that is certainly the Creole Cuisine! Jambalaya and King cake to die for! 3. New Orleans Is The Place Where Jazz Was Born This is the place where Jazz was born, along with two other music genres related to it - rock and roll and blues. 4. The City is Famous For The Beignets The beignets are New Orleans' signature sweet, and they are made from deep fried dough sprinkled with sugar. 5. There are no strict open container laws! Yes, you can walk around outside while sipping a real, grownup, alcoholic drink!" #traveling #travelers #travelbug #travelholic #travelgram #travelinggram #travelphotography #exploring #explorer #wanderer #wanderlust #doyoutravel #goexplore #travelmore #lovetotravel #wonderfulplaces #roamtheplanet #travellifestyle (at Creole Queen Mississippi River Cruises) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4s2ZX4JUur/?igshid=13l8nnye9ig0e
